Do you like the new look of Ozarks Farm & Neighbor so far? We hope you like our new and improved design. You’ll notice that OFN got a makeover from front to back. It’s been years since our paper was redesigned so we hope you’ll agree it was time for a new look. We strive to bring to you an interesting, informative and aesthetically pleasing publication about livestock production in the Ozarks.
We felt it was time to freshen things up a little bit so we started with redesigning the front cover. We decided to give it more of a magazine appeal. One crisp clean photo on the front sets the tone for the entire paper.
On page two you’ll notice we added a Table of Contents and got rid of the In this Section at the beginning of each section. The Table of Contents will guide you through the rest of the issue. We hope that it is handier having all this information right up front.
Some of our changes are a little more subtle like font and color changes. But all the great content you’ve always loved about OFN is still there. Our goal is to bring you more technical details that will help you with your own operation. We want you to be able to learn from the success of your neighbors.
One of the most read pieces in our paper is the Market Sales Report in the center of the paper. We hope the new layout is easier for you to read.
We’ve always worked hard at bringing you news and information about the issues in your backyard. We will continue to do that. Our maps may look a little different now, but the stories are still about your friends and neighbors. The new map allows for more editorial content, so a win-win for everyone.
Other useful sections like AgVisor columns, Farm Calendar, Auction Block and Classifieds are still there bringing you the latest information possible. Our continued special sections and issue focuses will offer the familiarity that you’ve grown to love and promote the advertisers and companies that make your life on the farm a little easier.
As the year winds to an end we hope that each issue continues to meet your expectations.
As the year comes to an end, I will once again be collecting recipes for our annual Country Christmas Cookbook. Please send recipes along with your name and hometown to: PO Box 6, Prairie Grove, Ark. 72753; fax them to 479-846-1003 or email them to
