Reach enthusiastic gardeners looking for new products and ideas

Garden-Making-Media-kit-2012-coverOur mission: Garden Making celebrates the joy of gardening.

Our mandate: To be the trusted source of comprehensive and clearly presented information and ideas for Canada’s gardeners.

Your audience: We reach experienced as well as neophyte gardeners who enjoy gardening as a satisfying recreation. Increasingly, men and women in their 30s and 40s are eager to learn more about gardening to enhance their personal landscape. At the same time, gardening continues to be a popular activity for Canadians age 50 or older who are spending more time and money on their surroundings.

Engage: Direct your marketing message to new and experienced gardeners who are looking for ideas and information about their favourite activity.
