Farm Show magazine interview

Farm Show magazine teaser/deer deterrent review


Farm Show magazine interviewed me recently over the phone about our mechanical deer deterrent contraption.

They sent a free copy so I could check out the article. It's my first exposure to this publication and I was impressed with the quality, but what really floated my boat was their lack of advertising. Zero.

I can have them send the current issue out to about a dozen friends, so if you think you might like to try a free trial copy then leave a comment and we'll have you email us your information.

Hello Mark & Anna,

I would be interested in a copy- comes at a good time as I am reading your microbusiness book, seeing examples of other ideas would be helpful. I really appreciate the diversity of thoughts and ideas presented in your blog- Thoreau to "Dirty Story" to worm bins and peeing near trees...

Best regards,

James C

Sorry, that should have been "The Dirty Life"...

Charles --- Got your email with the address --- you'll be on our list!

Mom --- We were going to add you to the list without asking you. You can read our copy, of course, but we thought you might enjoy the other articles to peruse at your leisure.

I love reading your blog by the way. Great inspiration even though I am an urban homesteader : )

I'm the editor and publisher of FARM SHOW. Just wanted to mention that we're happy to send a "no strings attached" free copy of FARM SHOW to anyone who wants one. Either send a note through Mark or go to www.farmshow.com to order one up. We'll just send an issue out. Thanks for the interest.

Mark Newhall --- Thanks for chiming in! It sounds like your way is much easier than us collecting addresses and mailing them to you. :-)

I went ahead and signed up everyone who had emailed me their addresses. That's: J. Christiansen Darren Kramer Charles Jaklik (And mom, because I know her address.)

Everyone else --- head on over to www.farmshow.com and get your sample copy!
