We Provide a Long Lasting and Attractive Advertising Medium: Unlike newspapers and magazines, The San Diego Natural Guide is designed to be a long lasting & portable reference source.

The cover is full color and features a natural-themed original piece of artwork.
Countywide Distribution: The San Diego Natural Guide is distributed free throughout San Diego County at over 350 locations such as: natural food grocers and Co-ops, green restaurants and cafes, health and wellness centers, yoga studios, libraries, special events, select real estate agencies, hotel concierge, practitioner waiting rooms, and local chambers of commerce. Distribution locations are refilled until all copies are in the hands of our community.
