A Fond Farewell
The season we hoped would never come is here.
Dear Friends,
It is with a great appreciation and heartfelt emotions that we write to share some sad news. After more than 200 years of sharing a unique blend of weather, wit and wisdom, we’ve made the very difficult decision to write the final chapter of this historical publication. The 2026 Farmers’ Almanac will be our last edition.
Many of you grew up hearing your parents or grandparents quote from the Almanac, always having a copy nearby. Maybe you have planted by our Moon phases, consulted the Almanac for the “Best Days” to potty train, wean, or go fishing. We’re grateful to have been part of your life and trust that you’ll help keep the spirit of the Almanac alive.
We are incredibly proud of the legacy we leave behind and are filled with gratitude. We appreciate and thank our loyal readers, contributors, and partners who have supported us through the years. Though the Almanac will no longer be available in print or online, it lives on within you.
So go ahead—plant your peas when the daffodils bloom. Watch for a red sky at night. Tell the kids how granddad always swore by the Almanac. That’s how our story stays alive.
With deepfelt appreciation,
Sandi Duncan and Peter Geiger
Editor and Editor Emeritus

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Sad news.
Fare thee well.
All good things come to an end, never to be forgotten. I do Bragg to others information I gain reading your articles. Blessings to all for your successes 🙏😊🌻🦀
So sad to hear this. I would buy it for my dad every Christmas!!! Unfortunately I guess all good things come to an end !
Very saddening. Given the times we’re in, seeing the Almanac fall hits like a freight train. It’s definitely a piece of heritage that should never be lost. Farewell, but never goodbye.
What are we going to do if we need to check planting season . Or read the signs . My grandmother taught me how to do that . You will be so missed . And the weather
How will we know the truth the news and weather is wrong mostly . But you’re on the money . Please reconsider.
You do realize you could easily sell the magazine for $10, double what. you’re charging.
And, thank you for all that you’ve done.
This breaks my heart. Ive been reading the almanac all of my life…I plan everything by the almanac. Gardening, canning
Oh my goodness. What is happening. I plan my Jersey shore, Cape May vacation EVERY year for the past years and years according to the almanac and they NEVER let me down. I loved reading the whole almanac. I am so sad. What is this world coming to when there is no more Farmers Almanac. Please don’t go 😔🤦🏽♀️😢😢
In the rebirth cycle all good things will come to a end. I truly loved the Almanac if nothing else in life was the same the Almanac was there year after year, since, I was a child growing up.
Thank you, to all who was able to produce and circulate such treasured wisdom.
You will be truly missed by me.
My grandmother
❤️💔❤️
would trim my hair by the moon cycles.
