PRINTNew Website … a Beautiful Thing.
Technology is a wonderful thing. It takes time to develop but we are delighted with the new www.farmersalmanac.com <http://www.farmersalmanac.com> . We have combined the best of the “old” Farmers’ Almanac and Farmers’ Almanac TV sites into a totally interactive source for information.
We have a Weather Time Machine where you can look up historical weather on any date going back to 1945. Our Long range weather is posted and updated in 2 month increments and you set your computer up for local conditions updated 24/7.
Another exciting feature is the ability to view dozens of videos of interest. Whether it is weather or other favorite topics that help live life “smarter”, it is all together on our new site.
Of course we have maintained our Best Days, Astronomy, Natural Cures and more. You can also pick up a copy of the 2008 edition or other items of interest online. Once you have spent time on the site, give me your feedback. What do you like and what more would you like to see. If the Time Machine doesn’t function, it is being “tweaked” and check back…. it is a great new offering.

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.
