Frequently Asked Questions

The Field Log Newsletter Line is a one-line sponsor mention with a link, run in two consecutive weekly editions. The Ridge & Valley Audio Package is four host-read mentions across our biweekly podcast over roughly two months. The Field Season Partnership bundles a three-month sponsor credit, three monthly newsletter features, six podcast mentions and one partner-labelled feature story. Full deliverables for each are listed on our Advertise page.

Kanata and Ottawa's west end: Stittsville, Carp, Bells Corners, the Carp Ridge and the tech park corridor. We don't sell placements to businesses outside that area, because our readers and listeners are concentrated here.

The newsletter line is plain text with a hyperlink, matched to our usual field log style. Podcast mentions are read live by our host during the episode, not inserted as a separate recorded ad. Partnership features are written articles, clearly labelled as sponsored content and separate from news coverage.

Two consecutive editions for the newsletter line, about two months of biweekly episodes for the audio package, and three months for the field season partnership. Run lengths are fixed to the listing and don't vary by request.

Send a message through our contact form naming the placement you want and roughly when. We reply within one business day to confirm availability and next steps.

We confirm the exact edition, episode window or partnership start date, agree the price and terms in writing, then move to drafting copy or a script. Nothing is scheduled to run until you've approved the wording.

Each price is complete — there's no separate production fee for copy or script drafting. Booking, invoicing and payment terms are set out in full in our advertising terms. Our cancellation and refund terms are on the cancellation & refunds page, and the summary sections live at Payment & refund policy and Payment & refund policy.

We're reachable Monday – Friday, 09:30–18:00 Eastern Time, at [email protected] or +1 613-592-5299. Messages sent outside those hours are answered the next business day.

Our office is at 74 Black Tern Cr., Kanata, ON K2M 2Z3 — see the map on our home page or the directions on our contact page.

Minor wording corrections can usually be made before the next scheduled edition or episode. Larger changes to a booked placement are handled as a rebooking under our advertising terms rather than an in-flight edit.
