Full Disclosure and Review Policy

Rockin' Granola and the domain http://www.rockingranola.com belong to me, Kara Fleck. The following disclosure applies to all of the content that you will find here.

The contents of this blog are written by me personally.  Any commentary on products, books, or curriculum and any reviews that are seen here reflect my own personal opinions.  While I do my best to provide my readers with accurate information, you should know that any product or curriculum claim, statistic, or quote should verified directly with the manufacturer or provider.

The images, photos, and graphics used here were either a) created by me or b) purchased by me from graphic artists who are credited and linked in my sidebar.  In other words, I either made it or I paid for permission to use it.  DO NOT take their work without permission!  

This blog is a labor of love for me and I write it because it is meaningful to me to have this space.  I write for myself first and am honestly flattered that anyone comes along and reads the words here.  So, thank you for visiting!

However, in the interest of honesty, I feel I should disclose that I do earn a small income from this blog.  The information I share here is free to my readers, but I do pursue opportunities for income - including affiliate ads and the use of Amazon Associate links for products and books.

As my family strives to become debt free, it is important that Rockin' Granola be a hobby that pays for itself.  Allowing ads and affiliate ads helps with that. I only include ads for products and companies that I believe are worthwhile and relevant to my blog's content.


My family and I appreciate it when you choose to make your purchases through our links and ads.   But, even if you never make a purchase through our ads or click on a single link - you are still very welcome to be here and share.

One of the things I love best about blogging is the guests who come to my web "home" and visit.  Without all of you, I'd just be talking to myself!

We thank you for supporting Rockin' Granola!

Review and Giveaway Policy:   Rockin' Granola reviews music, books, zines, crafting and knitting patterns, ebooks, homeschool materials, and other items.  I write honest reviews, but I do not post negative reviews on this blog.  If a product isn't a good fit for my family and this blog, I will simply decline to give it space on Rockin' Granola. I cannot always respond to every inquiry regarding review copies and/or giveaways. Thank you for understanding.

I seek out review opportunities that are mutually beneficial to the provider, my readers, and my family.   Many of the items you see reviewed here are items I have paid for myself and not been compensated for in any way, however if that is not the case I will fully disclose this.

If you are interested in advertising on Rockin' Granola, doing a giveaway for my readers, or in submitting a product for review, please contact me here:  karafleckATgmail.com
