Garden & Gun Magazine LLC

Garden & Gun Magazine LLC is the publishing and media operating entity for the Garden & Gun brand, founded in 2007 by Rebecca Wesson Darwin, Pierre Manigault, and John Wilson, with its headquarters in Charleston, South Carolina. Originally launched by the Evening Post Publishing Company, the magazine was acquired in 2009 by the founders' investment group (now Allee Group LLC) to operate as an independent media company. Garden & Gun Magazine LLC serves as the primary vehicle for the brand's journalism and content creation, anchoring a multiplatform lifestyle business that has expanded beyond print to include digital media, live events, and retail extensions. The entity focuses on delivering high-quality Southern lifestyle content, earning national recognition including National Magazine Awards for its editorial excellence. Business/Product Breakdown Garden & Gun Magazine LLC produces the award-winning Garden & Gun magazine, a bi-monthly publication that covers the sporting culture, food, music, art, and travel of the American South. The entity manages a robust digital ecosystem, including the brand's primary website and digital newsletters such as Talk of the South, The Skillet, and Good Hunting, which extend the magazine's editorial reach. In addition to traditional publishing, the company oversees the G&G Society membership program and produces original audio content, including the Wild South and The Whole Hog podcasts. Garden & Gun Magazine LLC acts as the central hub for the brand's intellectual property and editorial direction, which fuels related ventures like the Fieldshop retail store, the Garden & Gun Club hospitality venues, and the annual Made in the South Awards.
