7 Reasons to Support Organic Family Magazine:
1. Organic Family is jam packed with great articles!
2. Organic Family is unique. It is not the same old articles you find in the mainstream magazines.
3. Organic Family is created by mamas, papas, gardeners, herbalists, professors, librarians, dieticians, etc.
4. Organic Family is Full-Size and Full-Color.
5. There are NO formula advertisements EVER! Organic Family wishes to encourage women to nurse their babies and feels that formula advertising undermines that.
6. Organic Family is Printed on 100% Post-Consumer Waste Recycled Paper!
7. Organic Family is not owned by a large media conglomerate with special interests to feed. (We are home-based and mama powered!)
