Who is Hearth & Home Post for? +
Care homes, retirement residences, and assisted-living communities in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. Most homes receive printed copies every Friday and hand them out at meals or during recreation programming.
How is the content created? +
Each weekly issue is written by our editorial team and reviewed before publication. Content is tailored for prairie readers, dignified, and avoids distressing or partisan material.
How do residents receive their copy? +
Printed copies arrive at your facility every Friday by Canada Post. Staff hand them out. No printing, collating, or stapling required.
Which edition do we get? +
Prairie Weekly, written for residents who grew up in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. Each plan includes 20 printed copies every week. Other regions may come later.
Can we cancel anytime? +
Yes. Subscriptions are month-to-month. Cancel from your account dashboard or by emailing us.
Are the puzzles suitable for older readers? +
Yes. Grids are oversized, clues use general knowledge rather than wordplay, and themes are regional and familiar. Answer keys are provided separately.
Is it appropriate for residents living with dementia? +
Yes. Our co-founder Melisa Crandlemire is a former Registered Nurse (BScN, UBC) who practiced at Vancouver General Hospital, and she reviews every issue for suitability before it ships. Content is dignified and familiar, avoids distressing material, and the reminiscence prompts are written to work well in memory care programming. Many homes use the paper one-on-one with residents living with dementia.
How long does shipping take? +
We print and mail every Friday by Canada Post. Most facilities in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba receive their copies within 2 to 4 business days. Your delivery day stays consistent from week to week.
Can we try it before we subscribe? +
Yes. Request a free printed sample pack and we will ship Prairie Weekly to your facility at no cost, with no commitment. One sample pack per facility. You can also download a sample PDF to preview an issue right away.
