OUR VISION
•••••••••••••••
At Today Magazine, our goal is to inform and enhance the Farmington Valley community and beyond — recording Connecticut's underreported upside and giving advertising sponsors a powerful platform for boosting their brand
——————————————
In an ongoing way, we hope to be community-building, family-friendly and resident-centered — we focus not on breaking news, but on the people who make the news — we also believe everyone has a story to tell, so we aim to spotlight as many residents as possible who encompass these towns
——————————————
Five towns, one aim — exceptional community journalism

From our debut magazine in October 2018 thru December 2020, we published a print edition and a digital edition each month
From January 2021 thru December 2024, due to the financial fallout of the COVID pandemic and other factors, our print edition was interrupted and we published a digital-exclusive monthly magazine
Our monthly Today Magazine is currently on sabbatical — now our news coverage focuses exclusively on our digital news site: Today Magazine Online

GREAT NEWS — an amazing TEAM EFFORT — we've won 74 SPJ awards in 7 years > News Story
HEART OF THE VALLEY
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Today Publishing covers the heart of the Farmington Valley and beyond via community news that matters nationwide — we aim to record Connecticut's underreported upside
——————————————
Our news site — Today Magazine Online — reaches the digital realm across the Valley, throughout Connecticut and around the nation and world with our compelling news and cogent advertising — ads stay connected to our news content permanently and are linked indelibly to advertiser websites
——————————————
Today Magazine — our award-winning monthly publication — is currently on sabbatical, yet the stories we covered from October 2018 to December 2024 are timeless and remain relevant today
——————————————
When Today Publishing has produced our glossy print-and-digital magazine, it has been mailed to every residence and business in Avon, Canton, Farmington, Granby and Simsbury — a special print-and-digital edition is in the works, and having Today Magazine in print certainly benefits every advertiser who wants to reach the strategic Farmington Valley market in Greater Hartford
——————————————
When our award-winning publication is printed and mailed, Today Magazine reaches 100% of the Farmington Valley — every single residential and business address — while two other Valley mags traditionally reach less than 50% of homes ... a limited upper-income demographic
——————————————
Today Magazine has historically been mailed not only to the entire upper-income demographic of the Valley's five strategic towns but also every other home and business address in the Valley — 100% distribution with more than double the audience of other Farmington Valley mags ... at a far lower Cost Per 1000
——————————————
In order for local journalism to truly be community journalism, we believe a publication must be accessible to everyone in the community — makes sense, right?
——————————————
Every Farmington Valley resident is valuable, regardless of income — and while conventional wisdom says it's beneficial for advertisers to reach only an upper-income audience, we believe it's self-evident that the best value for our readers and advertisers is reaching the entire Valley with our unique take on community news
