About the magazine Published in eight editions per year, Martha’s Vineyard Magazine features in-depth articles on a range of island-related topics including local events, cuisine, music and the arts, gardening, interiors, personalities and traditions. Martha’s Vineyard Magazine was honored as a finalist for the 2010 National City and Regional Magazine Awards in three categories: General Excellence, Ancillary Publications for their Home & Garden magazine, and Leisure/Lifestyle Interests for their series on wild edibles. It is a member of the City and Regional Magazine Association (CRMA). Best of the Vineyard Best of the Vineyard is a contest held annually by the magazine in which readers vote for island businesses which “are the very best at what they do.” The award is given in a variety of categories that range from necessity to luxury.
