Are your business listings getting found online locally?

When potential customers search for products or services in your area, accurate and optimized business listings make all the difference. If your information isn't showing up—or isn't consistent across platforms—you could be missing valuable opportunities.

Let's make sure your business is easy to find where it matters most.

The bridge between digital search and physical sales is shorter than ever. If you aren't appearing at the top of local search results, you’re missing out on a massive wave of ready-to-buy customers. Let’s make sure you’re the first thing they see!

There are so many great things happening in our rural community, and we want to hear about them!

A big shoutout to L&R Ag for continuing to invest in and advance local farming. It's exciting to see businesses helping strengthen the agricultural roots that make Clinton County such a special place to live and work.

Do you know of other local agricultural initiatives, innovations, or success stories that are helping move the industry forward? We'd love to hear about them!

The elite compliment I’ve received over the last 3.5 years is when someone tells me, “Your magazine is so good, you should charge for it.”

When I hear that, I immediately think of two things:

✨ Our incredible team of writers, designer, and photographer who work hard every month to create meaningful, visually beautiful, high-quality content.

✨ The generous local businesses that invest in advertising with us, making it possible for us to deliver this magazine free of charge to homeowners throughout CC.

As you read this month’s issue, I hope you’ll keep that in mind. Supporting local businesses doesn’t just help them thrive—it helps them continue giving back, sponsoring community initiatives, and making our publication possible.

And now, I’m excited to introduce our June cover family!

Congratulations to Stan and Lavonne Albers of Beckemeyer, who grace the cover of our June issue. As the third generation to own and operate Taphorn Orchard, they have continued a family tradition that has been a delicious and memory-making part of our community for decades.

With peach and then apple season approaching, now is the perfect time to learn about the Albers Family and get ready for another mouthwatering season at Taphorn Orchard. Be sure to check your mailbox and enjoy this month’s magazine! Happy summer☀️
