Online ag information company Farms.com has picked up farm journal Small Farm Canada and its sister publication for the mobile heavy-duty repair sector, Service Truck.
Farms.com, which operates out of offices at Guelph, Ont. and Ames, Iowa, announced Thursday it has bought the two titles from Victoria-based Southern Tip Publishing, whose partnership group is retiring from the business.
Small Farm Canada, which launched in 2004 and publishes a national print edition six times per year, “will be continued by the existing talented writing contributors, supported by the Farms.com team,” the new owners said in a release.
