About Natural Nutmeg

Published monthly, Natural Nutmeg is our readers' guide to a healthier, more balanced life. Our mission is to provide information and resources for a healthy, active, sustainable lifestyle. In each issue readers find information on natural health, nutrition, fitness, personal growth, green living, and the products and services that support a healthy lifestyle.

With wide distribution throughout Connecticut. Natural Nutmeg is THE local resource for those health and environmentally conscious readers who desire a holistic, natural lifestyle and the advertisers who want to reach them.

Cutting-Edge Information

Each month Natural Nutmeg and SLOWER Network advertisers and writers provide the tools you need to assist you on your personal path to wellness. We feature articles by national authors as well as from local leaders in the natural health field. Additionally, we bring you news and events that are happening in our community—and around the globe.

Targeted Distribution

Reach our affluent, well-educated and health-conscious readers who are eagerly seeking resources that will improve their health and well being. With wide distribution throughout the greater Hartford area, Natural Nutmeg is picked up each month at your local health food stores, fitness centers, book shops, healthcare facilities, and wherever free publications are generally seen.

Cost-Effective Marketing

Compare our rates—they are the most reasonable you will find. Your ad in Natural Nutmeg works for you much longer than in daily or weekly publications—and readers keep and refer back to their issues.

Your editorial submissions are what make Natural Nutmeg a community resource for holistic and natural living. We want our readers to get to know you. Submitting editorial for one or more of our departments provides you with the opportunity to share knowledge and bring focus to your business.

Feature Articles

Length: 250-1200 words (some articles longer)

Due on the 1st of the month prior to next publication

Articles featured in Natural Nutmeg cover a wide range of subjects in the areas of health, healing, inner growth, fitness and earth friendly living. Articles should be written in layman’s terms, and impart information in a way that does not sound self-serving. Rather than tackling a vast subject, it is better to focus on a particular segment (Example: Using Chinese Medicine to Treat Menopause rather than Everything You Want to Know About Chinese Medicine). We reserve the right to edit all submissions if necessary; for longer features a copy of revisions can be faxed upon request. Please include a brief biography at the end of your article.
