Re: another garden magazine ceases


The Gardener was boring, I thought. It didn't offer anything I didn't already know or wasn't getting elsewhere. I didn't renew my subscription either.

I can't speculate about the demise of The Gardener, but I didn't renew my subscription and I suspect that I was not in the minority.  Several times I wanted to write a letter to the editor about errors and what I found to be poor editorial judgment.  However, there didn't appear to be any area in the magazine for letters so I held my tongue and just didn't renew.

It may be simple economics.  If you don't sell enough subscriptions or if your subscriber base continues to shrink...you cease to publish.
