A simple, meaningful way to support local food, local stories, and a stronger local economy

Edible has always been about more than recipes and restaurants. We tell the stories of the people who grow, make, cook, and serve food in our community—while encouraging readers to spend their time and their dollars locally.

The Edible Community Supporter program was created for small, locally owned businesses that want to align with our mission in an accessible, affordable way.

Why become an Edible Community Supporter?

Because your business already believes in the value of local.

Becoming a Community Supporter is not about running ads or chasing clicks. It’s about:

  • Showing your support for a trusted local publication
  • Aligning your business with readers who care about buying local
  • Staying visible, year-round, without a large marketing commitment
  • Being part of a community that values relationships over transactions

It’s a way to say: We’re local. We’re invested. We’re in.

What you receive

In every print issue of Edible:

  • Listing under the headline “Find a Copy: Businesses That Support Edible” alongside our Marketing Partners (New resource in print)
  • Complimentary copies of each print edition to share with your team and customers
  • Opportunity to submit a 1/8-page ad for inclusion in our e‑TIDINGS newsletter up to twice per year at no charge, just request one week in advance
  •  🎉 You will receive first consideration for remnant print ad space, at no charge, when available (early sign-up encouraged; first come, first served)

To maintain visibility and value, the number of Supporters is limited. Once those spots are filled, enrollment will pause.

If this all matters to you, we’d love to welcome you as an Edible Community Supporter.

Annual investment: $300 (💲if you break it down, that’s only $25 a month)
