Founded in 2002, Alberta Gardener is the third in the Local Gardener magazine series published by Pegasus Publications Inc.
Alberta Gardener zeros in on gardening in one of the more challenging areas of Canada. In Alberta, as in Manitoba, winters can be long and cold, while the summers are hot and, in the southern part of the province, arid.

Local gardens are influenced by the nearness of the mountains and by the cultural mix.
The publication is four-color, 8 ½ by 11 inches, published six times a year (retail price $5.95), plus a special Beautiful Gardens issue ($8.95). Yearly subscriptions are $29.95.
