MiNDFOOD | About Us – McHugh Media
"People do not decide to become extraordinary. They decide to accomplish extraordinary things." - Sir Edmund Hillary (1919-2008)
McHugh Media is a new integrated media company. It is privately owned by husband-and-wife team Michael and Michelle McHugh. For them, owning their own media group and launching both a magazine and online integrated media concept is a dream come true.
MiNDFOOD is an integrated media brand delivering local and global information. The magazine and website feature television, podcasts, electronic newsletters, recipes, quotes, brain teasers, features, photographs and daily news.
The core editorial platforms of Health, Self, Food, Travel, Community, Environment, Culture, News, Fashion, Beauty, Style and Technology can be accessed online and through the pages of the magazine.
Launched in March 2008, MiNDFOOD is innovative in that you can choose how and when you want to access the content, either through the pages of the magazine or daily interaction with MiNDFOOD online. We've done the work for you.
