November 20, 2008 | I finally cancelled my long-held subscription to the magazine. Lacks the content of old; the driving force; the proactive stances; the anti-chemical ethos. A bit too politically correct, I think, in order to garner ad revenues from all sides of the chemical-organic aisle. A hint of that was recently granting GMO advocates a 2-page spread of what amounted to free publicity. If I want to read about GMO's, I don't need an organic pub to tell me what I can find elsewhere. Most pro-organics are quite capable of doing that research and don't need to have precious space taken up in the already thin magazine with GMO agenda. Don't know that I completely bought the editorial caveat that this GMO exposure was just to play fair w/the other side. I doubt Monsanto/GMO-o-philes would grant the same consideration to organic gardening propaganda. Besdes, I'd rather spend my gardening mag money on pubs of more substance like Fine Gardening, The American Gardener (from AHS), Garden Gate & Horticulture. Plus they deal more w/ornamentals than O.G. does. | | Neutral | jackybean

May 05, 2008 | I first used Organic Gardening publications when Rodale was
the driving force. It was then educational, more technical and great a source for confident gardening. It has changed to be more fluff and a sad attempt at mild entertainment.
Since moving back to this country a few years ago, I've been sadly disappointed. We need the Organic Gardening of 'old'. | | Positive | leisurlee

February 24, 2005 | I think this magazine is wonderful. I've been subscribing for two years or so. I was disappointed when they switched to the "OG" format, but now that they are back to Organic Gardening, I'm enjoying it. I think the tips for organic gardeners are valid, and I've incorporated alot of their suggestions in my gardening practices. I especially like the featured pest articles. | | Positive | paulgrow

August 14, 2003 | No, it is not the Organic Gardening of years past; but it still has some very good articles for those of us who garden organically.
Hopefully as time goes on it will again become on one of the premier gardening magazines. It has a new editor who will perhaps see our side of the story. | | Neutral | dave719
