Why do you only give one week at a time of moon zodiac signs now?
I’m so happy that I found you!! 😁❤️
Is today a good day to take cuttings
I’m so happy you’re back!
My eyes bulged out and my mouth dropped open when I read in the newspaper of your intentions. I have bought the book each years and encouraged others to buy and glean the knowledge from it for our needs. It rests beside my chair and I check it often to plan my strategy. I will miss it. I have tried to utilize the website but become bitter trying to use it. I don’t want to take the time it takes to go through this website. Sincerely.
I am so sorry to hear that you’re ceasing the Almanac. I grew up with one in my great grandmother’s home as well as my grandparents and mother. I have carried on the tradition and have learned a wealth of information along with gardening. Thank you for your information throughout the years. God Bless You. Darlene
Seeing past zodiac sign dates. I would like to see the past week’s signs on the Zodiac Man calendar. Any information would be appreciated.

Is there a way to see a more specific forecast? Instead of just Midwest, say like to hone in on Wisconsin?
