The following is a press release from Edible Mendocino & Lake Counties:
Edible Mendocino & Lake Counties, a new food and drink magazine about the people, products, issues, events and businesses that comprise the food and beverage community in both Mendocino and Lake counties, will publish its inaugural issue in early September 2023.
The magazine will include personal stories of local artisans and growers, features about issues that are relevant to the food and beverage industry, recipes that incorporate local ingredients, shopping and dining guides, and occasional special sections related to topics such as weddings, holiday gifts, wellness, travel, and more. Contributors are writers, photographers, designers, cooks and authors who either live locally or are otherwise connected to current issues of interest to residents of and visitors to the area.
Edible Mendocino & Lake Counties is part of the award-winning Edible network of 75+ magazines published around the U.S. and Canada that collectively engage more than 1.4 million readers. The magazine is the 15th Edible title in California, and the eighth in Northern California: its sister publications include Edible Marin & Wine Country, Edible Sacramento, Edible East Bay, Edible San Francisco, Edible Shasta-Butte, Edible Monterey Bay, and Edible Reno-Tahoe.
The publisher and managing editor of Edible Mendocino & Lake Counties, Karen Elowitt, is based in Ukiah and brings 15 years of experience as a food and travel writer, communications professional, and public relations manager to the role.
“I had admired the Edible brand for years, so when I learned a license was available for Mendocino and Lake counties, I jumped at the opportunity,” Elowitt said. “The two counties both have rich traditions of local food and drink, and there is great synergy between them. Of course they each have distinct personalities, but they both share a commitment to – and pride in – the FLOSS concept (fresh, local, organic, sustainable, seasonal). My team and I look forward to exploring all corners of both counties and sharing their stories and culinary treasures with readers.” Edible Mendocino & Lake Counties will be published in print quarterly – in fall, winter, spring and summer – and online at ediblemendocino.com. It will be distributed for free at over 70 locations throughout both counties, or by subscription for $25 per year.
