magazine which I picked up at the Lowe's is quite good. It includes the most basic of gardening primers: last issue featured John Jeavons, this issue has Mel Bartholomew, as well as articles on livestock and energy and water conservation.
The letters were very interesting: one reader was incensed that not enough attention was being paid to global warming (0bviously this issue went to press before Climategate). Another was a very well-reasoned plea for more realistic articles on urban livestock from an experienced farmer, who fears that this will be a fad and result in lots of abandoned, or worse, chickens and mini-goats.
I was very impressed with the overall tone, which I thought was quite balanced. I intend to buy the first issue as a download, and continue to pick it up as new issues are published. It is not yet available for subscription.
