“Chickens in Your Own Backyard” leads the issue with a practical, of-the-moment guide to backyard poultry, tapping into the growing local interest in raising your own eggs and connecting with where food comes from.

“RescueVets: Saving Two Lives” tells a moving story about the program pairing rescued animals with veterans — a partnership that heals both the animal and the person, resonant in a Fort Campbell community. “Self Confidence in Kids” offers parents guidance on nurturing resilient, self-assured children.

The health pages close out the year with practical advice: “Five End-of-Year Tips From Your Pharmacist” helps readers make the most of their benefits, and “Five Tips for Staying Well When the Family's Sick” prepares households for cold-and-flu season.

A feature on reversing the signs of facial aging, a Lifestyle piece and the recurring departments round out an issue that balances homegrown living, healing and seasonal health.

The recurring departments and photo pages round out an October issue centered on homegrown living and healing. Backyard chickens, a program pairing rescued animals with veterans, and guidance on raising confident kids all share the same pages — each about nurturing something, whether a flock, a bond or a child. It is the magazine at its most grounded and warm, celebrating the small acts of care that make a house a home and a community whole, while its end-of-year health tips prepare families practically for the season ahead. It is a distinctly Clarksville autumn captured in full, equal parts self-reliance and heart.
