Interesting content, market dates are best
S
ir ~ I found a copy of
the Gauteng Smallholder
at my local nursery. I
have enjoyed reading the
magazine thoroughly.
The contents are very
interesting and informative.
Some are even useful to me,
although we have a small
garden. I'm also fascinated by
the different kinds of advertisements. The best part is
where one can find the
upcoming events and market
dates.
Those Quirky pictures are
simply the best! I sent them to
my friends and family
overseas and they had a good
chuckle as they miss South
Africa very much!
Thank you and your team for
your dedication and hard
work, as well as the sponsors
who make the magazine free,
so the great contents in each
issue can reach a lot of
people.
Please take care and keep up
the good work.

So you can rest assured that,
while we will offer an on-line
version of, hopefully, increasing utility and convenience, a
paper-based Smallholder will
be available to you for a long
time. Even if you only use it to
whack the dog (and I am
PAPER MAG
and often mature readerships
such as ours.
Having said that, the effects of
internet-based publishing are
causing “traditional” publishers to radically rethink their
business models, and we are
no exception.
But we have no intention of
rushing headlong into
something that, firstly won't
make a material difference to
the lives of the majority of our
readership and, secondly,
won't make us substantial piles
of cash.
