Celebrating One Year of My Humboldt LIFE
It’s been a year since we started publishing My Humboldt Life, and there’s nothing better than hearing from you! Each month, my inbox and conversations are filled with messages from community members sharing how much they enjoy the magazine. Whether it’s the beautiful photography, inspiring local stories or discovering a new restaurant in our area, your enthusiasm fuels everything we do. Thank you for reading, sharing and being part of this growing community.
One question we get asked a lot is: Why do you only feature business owners on the cover? The answer is simple: We believe local business owners are the heartbeat of Humboldt County. They take risks, follow passions and help create the unique, independent spirit that defines our home. By spotlighting them, we’re celebrating not just their businesses, but their stories, grit and the ripple effect they have on our economy.
