  7. Donna Rhodes –

    I love, love, love this magazine, everything in it. I have been taking it for at least 20 years and I keep every issue and I buy the anthologies. It’s a walk down memory lane for me because I grew up in the country living the way the way Backwoods Home portrays life.

  8. Debbie Guastella –

    I so enjoy this magazine with it’s insightful articles for homesteading, canning, building things & general knowledge. I’ve just recently subscribed to the Self Reliance magazine hoping it will be just as informative. There are some “opinions” and articles I may not agree with but I always look forward to sitting back and enjoying my quiet time every time I get my new issue.

  9. Delores Osteen –

    I love this magazine. I enjoy all the articles in it yes even Ayoob on firearms. I own a pistol myself but he is informative on of alot of diffrent guns. The recipes are good everything about this magazine is some kind of information that is new to me. I’m a country girl and thought I knew oretty much but there is always something new to learn and your magazine dies just that. Thank you for an informative well versed magazine for old ans new folks alike.

  10. G. Doller –

    I’ve been reading Backwoods Home, and the associated blogs, for at least 15 years. The contributors are knowledgeable. The articles are varied, well written and informative. I greatly appreciate that the magazine is mostly content, with only a small amount of advertising. I really feel like I’m getting my money’s worth with Backwoods Home.

  11. Ernie Jelliff –

    I am 80 years old and was born and raised in farming country of the twin tiers of NY and PA north of Wellsboro PA. So I learned a lot while growing up BUT wow is Backwoods Home Magazine an awesome teacher. I guess I didn’t learn all I thought I did.

  12. Tony Thigpen –

    Always look forward to next issue. Lots of information even for someone that has lived a rural life since childhood. (50 +years)

  13. Donna Rhodes –

    I have been taking this magazine and its Anthologies for at least 20 years and I love it for its gardening, surviving, guns, and down to earth advice on how best to live your life.

  14. Joel Fiske –

    A very good magazine. Well worth the subscription price. I always anxiously await my quarterly issue.

  15. Jill Pittman –

    I have been a subscriber for a very long time and still am thrilled to find Backwoods Home Magazine in my mailbox. Every issue has something new and interesting in it. The regular contributors seem like old friends. Thank you for not selling out to big business – we love you just as you are.

  16. Monica Bennett –

    I love this magazine! I learn something everytime I read it!

  17. Charlotte Michel –

    I used to get this magazine digitally for years. When I decided to gift it for my daughter I did it in hard copy format. I loved it so much that I switched to the hard copy version myself. I have been a subscriber for at least a decade and I have always found new information and articles that inform and educate. In this day and age of inflation, worries about big agriculture practices and self reliance, this magazine is pure gold. I can now leaf through all my back issues either digitally or hard copy to find any topic I want. I also recommend the
    Anthologies for new subscribers as a great way to catch up and not miss any great information.

  18. Bill Weems –

    Very informative magazine, I love it 😍

  19. Brenda Charter –

    I have taken BWH for many years and always enjoy the diversity of articles. So much good advice from Jackie. Wisdom from Dave.
    Highly recommend for anyone who wants to learn about living a sustainable lifestyle and self reliance. I love the magazine because I’m old fashioned that way, to be able to easily thumb through. And the artwork is great! Please never change.

  20. Todd Daniels –

    Our whole family loves this magazine! The kids marvel at how self sufficiency is actually “a thing,” and we use it to remember the ways our parents and grandparents had to survive before modern consumerism made us all ignorant! We will keep these issues as a valuable resource for our unknown future.

  21. Suzan Moore –

    I bought a subscription for my husband for his birthday & he loves it. He’s read it from cover to cover more than once & can’t wait till the next issue.

  22. Mary Johnson –

    I bought this subscription for my son-in-law’s birthday gift as this is what he requested. I do not have access to the magazine as he lives 5 hours away from me.

  23. Gerri –

    I love this magazine, working towards being self-reliant, better manager of soil/yard/garden. Thank you

  24. Kim H. –

    My son and I have Self Reliance and Backwoods Home subscriptions. Both magazines are extremely informative. The recipes are a bonus!

  25. Kathleen K Marvin –

    I really enjoy Self Reliance and Backwoods Home magazines. There is always good information in them, nice stories and recipes. I look forward to receiving them. I have cancelled several subscriptions but not these two! I find myself scanning in articles for future use. When I am done reading them they get passed on to a friend and she passes them on to someone else.
    Thank you very much!

  26. Kim Storey LaBarbera –

    I like the “attention to detail” aspect feel of the magazine.

  27. Robert Judd –

    A well thought out magazine with good articles about a lot of different things.

  28. Linda L Yurk –

    fantastic magazine, My hubs and I read it cover to cover and even tho we are old 73 76 we are still learning. thanks

  29. Mary Werner –

    So happy with this publication. It’s the kind I leave next to my recliner so I can read over and over – all the articles are interesting and so many apply to me and my family. I recommend it to anyone and will give it as a gift to several people I know.

  30. MARY –

    Love this magazine! First started reading it when I saw it on the table as we visited our daughter’s home. She had a years’ worth stored in the magazine rack and I read every one cover to cover. The articles are very informative from gardening to animal care, and I love the recipes provided. I just knew I needed to get my own subscription 🙂 I’m not disappointed!

  31. Tammy –

    As an older person I was skeptical about ordering the magazine. But it has been a very good choice. It is packed full of information on many topics for the homestead. Very glad I ordered.

  32. Cindy –

    I really enjoy this magazine. I liked it so much I ordered another subscription for my daughter.

  33. Carol –

    I do not have a homestead but love this magazine. It’s full of recipes, facts, canning, building and taking care of animals and so much more. Ruthann Zimmerman did a video on this magazine and I had to sign up for it. A great thick magazine filled with a lot of information for everyone.

  34. Jo Ann Butts –

    Your magazine is very good, but I would probably like the Self Reliance more. It’s a better fit for me, cause I don’t have animals, but maybe some chickens in the future. Thank you and if you can please switch me other for the next issue. ❤️

  35. amy –

    I really enjoy this magazine! FULL of good information. I read it front to back… look forward to every issue. Thank you !

  36. Amber –

    I got my first issue this week… I’m so glad I’ve found this magazine! Very informative articles and something I’ll be adding to my collection of useful books. Highly recommend!

    Quality information from people who have experience not theory. Format is quality.

  39. Rhonda Griffith –

  40. Rhonda Griffith –

    I am really enjoying this magazine. I am learning all kinds of new things. Thank you

  41. Marilyn Deegan –

    Thanks for a fun and informative magazine! I’ll probably never live on a homestead but it’s interesting to read how others do it and the hard work and ingenuity involved. And who knows — I may use some of this information to become more self reliant in my suburban home!

  42. Sunandha Taylor –

    I love love love both magazines. I read front to back. So much great information. Helps us so much with our homesteading life.

  43. Rachel Vaughn –

    A quality, well produced magazine with down to earth and useful ideas. It’s one to reread.

  44. Rebecca Meyer –

    I once had a mentor (who also subscribed to Backwoods Home) who told me that if he got ONE good idea from each issue of a magazine then the cost of subscription had been worth it. I always find at least one and often many more good ideas that make the cost of this wonderful magazine so worthwhile. There aren’t many magazines where I read all the articles, even if some of them don’t necessarily apply to my situation. You never know when something you read will cause the penny to drop in some unrelated area of life. I love that the articles are written by people engaged in the very thing they are writing about and often have many years of experience.

    This was a birthday gift for my daughter who requested a subscription. She loves it!

  47. Gail –

    I’m very old and have been living this way for a looong time. I must say I am happy to read of the things I know about and delighted to learn of new things and ways of doing things. Times change, but not the importance of being aware of those changes and adopting some of them. I hope to be reading your magazines for many more years. By the way, this is the first time I have had the good fortune to enjoy your publications.

  48. Shannon From Texas –

    What a great magazine. I have learned so much from the informative articles. Really is the only magazine I read.

  49. Monte Owen –

    Great magazine!!

  50. Julie Young –

    Very good variety of useful well written articles to help with the homestead.

  51. Randall Ray –

    I’m so glad I seen this magazine! I seen it on a friends post on Facebook and was thinking about looking into it. Then i seen it on True Grit Appalachian Ways. So, I ordered it, and I just love it. I’m not disappointed

  52. JL –

    I bought this as a Christmas gift for my hubby. He LOVED it! I guess he is gonna wait until football season is over to dig into it!

  53. Carmen Swim –

    I’ve been reading Backwoods Home magazine for at least 25 years. I let my subscription lapse during a busy life-season but have recently picked it back up. There’s no other magazine that I’ve ever read that has so much information on so many practical subjects relevant to my life. I’m newer to Self-Reliance magazine but am thoroughly enjoying it as well. Jackie Clay, especially, has taught me so much over the years and I use what I’ve learned from this magazine every year as we cycle through gardens, birthing and caring for our animals, replenishing our soil, food preservation etc.

  54. johane –

    I enjoyed reading the magazine, still am though. Very informative, fun and practical … wonderful read during a cozy fireplace evening!

  55. Denise Johnson –

    Just received our first magazine, and I love it! Every page is worth reading and very informative. I find myself reading and referring to it over and over. Great recipes.

  56. Denise –

  57. Bonnie Haley –

    I just received my very first issue. I’m so enjoying the useful articles without all the fluff and advertising that make up most magazines. What a great resource for years to come. Thank you for your diligence in keeping it simple in today’s world.

  58. Cindy –

    I purchased a subscription after seeing it on the vlog, The Hollar Homestead. My friend is starting gardening and chicken raising this year and I wanted her to have good information to help her. She said her husband is studying the articles in the first issue on chickens and is making many notes. I look forward to hearing more from her this growing season!

  59. Biil Keach –

    Good articles, the first magazine we enjoyed.

  60. Donna –

    I have only received one magazine so far, but I really enjoyed it. I retired a few years ago and decided that I would learn something new every year. This has given me several ideas for the future, and how to improve what I am already doing.

  61. Jackie –

    I’ve recently subscribed to both Backwoods Home & Self Reliance magazines. While I haven’t received my first Self Reliance publication yet, I have received Backwoods Home. I was so surprised by how much information is packed into this one magazine. I loved every article and learned several new things. I wish I’d have known about this magazine years ago! I look forward to reading Self Reliance when it arrives soon. I’ll definitely renew my subscription. It’s an amazing bargain for such a small fee. No magazine even comes close to what this one offers. Keep up the great work!

  62. K –

    I am learning new skills that I didn’t even know existed. I am so excited about the woven rug instructions. Finally a way to repurpose all my old sheets and linens.

  63. Michelle Barnes –

    Recently received my 1st copy. Very informative magazine, love the jokes!
