Why Advertise with Edible Western NY & Erie Lakeshore?

From the largest grape growing region in the eastern United States to dairy, corn, fruit, meats, and more, farmers in western New York State are producing delicious and nutritious food for our tables.

We believe in celebrating these farmers along with chefs, brewers, winemakers, and food artisans. And, we believe in growing your business. 

Our readers are informed and passionate consumers that place a premium on quality. They are champions of local businesses—and not just when it comes to food and drink. They are seeking an experience and a relationship with the businesses they patronize.

We produce a beautiful and informative magazine, and in doing so, inspire readers to support the businesses that partner with us.
