Highgrove Happenings

I think aiden.a's review perfectly summarized my feelings regarding this paper. Went from AMAZING and informative to peddling weird conspiracy theories about national politics. Very disappointing. Most neighbors no longer even bother picking up the paper from the driveway anymore. Boycott of Reliable Tire (same ownership) on Iowa should be organized until we get our LOCAL newspaper back.

I’ve read the Highgrove Happenings for a long time, I’m disappointed to see how much the newspaper has declined under its new editor/management. Previously, it was such a vibrant and positive source of local news that celebrated our community, highlighted positive events, and offered stories that brought residents together. It was something everyone, regardless of background, could enjoy and appreciate. Unfortunately, the recent shift has been nothing short of jarring. The newspaper now seems more focused on politics and sensationalized stories that don’t reflect our local interests. Instead of engaging content about Highgrove and more local news, we’re seeing repetitive and trivial complaints, particularly about the burros, which detract from the newspaper’s value. What’s even more trou

Highgrove paper used to be something I looked forward to, but now it's just a one sided political and religious ideologies. This is the reason we have separation of church and state. This is supposed to be a representation of Highgrove not just the political ideologies of one person trying to sway Highrove. Keep your political opinions to yourself and report actual FACTUAL news. Bring back the old Highrove paper.

Provides updates and great information regarding the community. I appreciate all that Barney and his staff do to keep us in the know.

Good paper to read if you want to keep up with what's going on around you!
