Publisher Nicole Miale is excited to announce that Natural Awakenings Fairfield County has expanded to include additional towns in Litchfield County, growing the limited presence the magazine has had in that area for the past few years. To mark this expansion, beginning this issue, the new name for the edition is now Natural Awakenings Fairfield County/Housatonic Valley, CT. This allows us to distribute magazines and become an integral part of the holistic living communities in New Milford, Kent, Washington, Washington Depot, Bridgewater, Roxbury, Woodbury, Watertown, Bethlehem, Morris, Thomaston, Plymouth, Bantam and New Preston.

Natural Awakenings Fairfield County was co-founded in 2004 by Lisa Jacoby and Mary Karnis with Marilee Burrell, who is currently the co-founder and publisher of the Westchester/Putnam/Dutchess, NY edition. In May 2013, Miale began her Natural Awakenings publishing adventure as the new owner of the Fairfield County edition. Since then, the edition has not only greatly increased the number of valuable and actionable local articles and resources, but it has also grown significantly in readership with magazines currently distributed to more than 1,200 locations throughout Fairfield County and southwestern Litchfield County.

“We initially began some distribution into southern Litchfield County a few years ago to help meet the needs of our northern Fairfield County advertisers,” Miale says. “Over time, more people asked us to come to their locations and asked how they could get involved in the Natural Awakenings community. We are thrilled to now make that possible for them, serving a vibrant community hungry for the empowering information, education and inspiration we provide in each issue.”

The first edition of Natural Awakenings was launched in Florida by CEO Sharon Bruckman in 1994. The company’s franchise owners publish over 90 local editions of the magazine, distributing more than 1.3 million total monthly copies throughout the United States and Puerto Rico.
