  • You plan your garden by the lunar calendar and want reliable frost dates plus folklore wisdom all year round.
  • You track the night sky regularly and need accurate rise/set times, planet visibility, and seasonal astronomy events.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer digital apps and don't want a physical reference book on your shelf or by your back door.

  • You need hyperlocal weather forecasting or real-time updates instead of seasonal patterns and historical trends.

About this book

The Old Farmer's Almanac has provided useful information with humor since 1792. The 2026 edition continues this tradition, offering fun facts, predictions, feature articles, and advice on topics including gardening, weather, and astronomy. The Almanac is trusted by readers across many backgrounds for its honesty and accuracy. The book functions as a calendar of the heavens, providing daily astronomical data including Sun and Moon rise and set times, day length, tide times, and planet and star sightings. It also serves as a calendar of the year, presenting annual and seasonal events, holidays, anniversaries, astrological "Best Days," and cycles. Content includes cultural trends, weather forecasts, and articles on gardening, home arts and remedies, history, nature, cooking and recipes, folklore, pets, and sports. Recognized as North America's most beloved and best-selling annual, the Almanac is described as an American icon that connects readers to North American history. This 2026 edition features a semi-rigid cover without a hole to protect pages, whiter paper, and larger type than the paperback classic edition.
