We hosted a grand party for an exciting launch of our first print magazine.

Longtime readers, newbies, and advertisers came out to celebrate Rural Intelligence's first foray into print as we launched our summer magazine last night, June 29. More than 100 people gathered at Dewey Hall in Sheffield, Massachusetts to meet our team, pick up a copy of the magazine, and enjoy food, drink, and non-infused cannabis gummy samples provided by our sponsors. And, like we always do, we recorded the occasion for posterity with lots of photos of who was there. We were eager to gauge the reaction to our new venture, and the concensus was clear: Print is still a thing, and thus will likely continue to be included in the mix of Rural Intelligence's portfolio.
