I’ve frequently purchased “Southern Living” magazine. “Home and Garden” is one I enjoy thumbing through, too. Oh, “House Beautiful” should get a mention, but “Garden & Gun?”

Really? I was almost tempted to buy the periodical just to see photos of people gardening with their guns. Maybe they use a pistol in place of a spade. Or a rifle as a hoe. My imagination has been titillated.
I’m not a gardener, but the essence of a garden is peace and life. To paraphrase Tina Turner, “What’s gun got to do with it?”
Peace, people.
Plainly a gun is a garden’s latest requisite.

I wonder what kind of writers contribute to this thing. And what they write about… 😳

Apparently it is all about the South – someone’s daft name

It just seems like an oxymoron; although, one of my blogging friends tells me it’s a good publication. Maybe I’ve judged too harshly based on the title.

Perhaps cooking obtained by both garden and gun – but still dicey.

We subscribe to this magazine and enjoy reading it. Has articles about travel, home decor, recipes, things in the south mostly. They occasionally feature golf courses, fishing destinations etc. Check it out.

I did and I agree it’s got good articles, BUT what about the name of the magazine? Sounds too weird to be believable…

It does, doesn’t it. I thought I’d misread the title!

I wonder how they came up with the name? Maybe for alliterative purposes?

I’ve subscribed to this magazine since the day it came out. I love it. It is a great magazine–lots more to read than Southern Living–which I also subscribe to. You should get a copy and see what you think. The ‘Good Dog’ stories always tear my heart.

West coast liberal here so I’m obviously not their demographic but the name sounds odd to my ears too. Gardening is a peaceful pursuit… although I’d be lying if I said that I don’t have murderous thoughts when squirrels or gophers get into my vegetables.

Maybe that’s why the guns are necessary!? Ha.

Maybe the gun is to run off the critters eating the veggies. Only thing that makes sense to me. Or…”you better like what I pulled from the garden and put on the table”. Forget about going to be hungry. 🤣

Lol! Both are plausible! I am now hearing from many friends that it’s a great publication. I’ll buy a copy next time I’m in the store.
