Farmers Almanac posted that the 2026 issue would be their last. Started in 1818, so it's been around all our lives. Can't believe it's going away.

1818, im sure there are a few democrat voters on social security that could tell us about how life was like without the Farmers Almanac
LOL
IIRC, this is the "copy". The original will still be in print.
Don't have time to dig right now but I recall this from about a month ago
The Farmers’ Almanac will be gone for good after its final 2026 edition, not to be confused with The Old Farmer's Almanac, a separate publication.
"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 Farmers’ Almanac staff wrote in a Nov. 6 statement.
Both the print and online versions of the Farmer's Almanac will disappear.
However, The Old Farmer's Almanac says that despite the confusion between the two, it is here to stay.
"Over the years, there has been some confusion between our two almanacs, so to be clear: The OLD Farmer's Almanac isn’t going anywhere," the publication said in a Nov. 7 statement. "As we have since 1792, we will continue to publish our annual edition, while educating and entertaining readers online at Almanac.com.

very sad news. I could kick myself for not saving the copies I bought every year since 1976. Since then, there has always been a copy , usually in my restroom, to study the phases of the moon for growing, or the visible planets, time of sunrise, moonrise, an important chart for the natural world.
Because all of their traditional wisdoms and predictions have been null and voided with weather-mod. Nothing is in sync anymore.
Impossible to predict the weather trends when its all manipulated.
Maybe someone else can pick it up and continue.
Nobody has picked up Joanne’s. It had a devoted following as well. Feel like everything that contributes to our independence on them will be gone.
maybe the calendar will revert and we go to a 13 month system and a new book comes out in a few years.......
...although I am an "Old Farmers Almanac " reader, this is truly sad news...
THE END OF AN ERA
