Missing Mudcakes and Roses? Fear not – there's a new magazine available to meet the reading needs of our vibrant 50-plus age group.
For more than a decade and hundreds of issues, Mudcakes and Roses was our dedicated publication for the senior generation.
However, like the change of seasons, all things must pass and a hard decision to discontinue the magazine was made last year.
Those lamenting the absence of some worthwhile content from coffee tables and waiting rooms around our region have not had to wait long for the gap in the market to be filled.
Best Life is a new publication that picks up where Mudcakes and Roses left off, bringing its own fresh take on celebrating everything great about the 50-plus years, informing and educating those of us embracing the senior life in a style as spirited as the target audience.
Published by Top South Media – who also publish Waimea Weekly, The Guardian Motueka and Top of The South Farming Monthly – Best Life was first published in November 2023.
It will be published bi-monthly and produce six issues annually.
Whether it’s inspirational stories, reader recipes, financial advice, health, local history or quizzes, you’ll find something of interest – all written by locals like yourself.
Tasman District Council will also be a regular contributor to future issues, sharing events, initiatives and general information that interests and benefits the growing population of people that make Tasman special.
