PRINTThe National Show
Farmers Almanac TV just returned from The National Show in Atlanta where we were received with open arms by the rest of the Cable Industry. It was great to reconnect with our friends from BlueHighways TV and learn how well they’ve been doing with their VOD offerings and their Blue Grass programming on RFD. Look for us to add a BlueHighways TV page to our site very soon.
We also were happy to discover that our series on PBS combined with our broadband offerings (our online video) is a perfect strategy to build upon as we expand further into television. Our lineups — Gardener’s Row, Natural Cures, etc — will be showcased across the internet on various sites. In fact, if you know of a site that would benefit from having our video lineups built right into those sites (for Free), let us know. The shows and segments we’ve got only add value to other sites with members interested in these kinds of things.
It’s a big week for us as our shows continue to roll out across the country. Thanks for all your patience as it has taken time to get to where we now are. And let us know if you see the shows and have any suggestions.
Thanks!

If you notice a hole in the upper left-hand corner of your Farmers' Almanac, don't return it to the store! That hole isn't a defect; it's a part of history. Starting with the first edition of the Farmers' Almanac in 1818, readers used to nail holes into the corners to hang it up in their homes, barns, and outhouses (to provide both reading material and toilet paper). In 1910, the Almanac's publishers began pre-drilling holes in the corners to make it even easier for readers to keep all of that invaluable information (and paper) handy.
