Dang it!
This is the Farmers’ Almanac, not the more familiar Old Farmer’s Almanac.
I wouldn’t be surprised if someone bought the rights and resumed publication on an updated financial model.
At the end of the article it said the Old Farmers Almanac is still being published.
I read that and was confused. Apparently, the Old Farmer’s Almanac is the new version, not the original.
Did you? This is the publication from Maine which has copied the Old Farmer’s Almanac for hundreds of years.
Old Farmer’s Almanac will continue to publish, as it has for 233 years, and the longest running periodical in the United States.
Got it reversed.
The Old Farmer’s Almanac began Publication on 1792.
The Farmer’s Almanac started in 1818.
I’ve always used the Old Farmer’s Almanac.
The one and only Old Farmer’s Almanac is alive and well. https://www.almanac.com

“Apparently, the Old Farmer’s Almanac is the new version, not the original.”
The Old Farmers’s Almanac is the older, original version.
I went fishing on those days, too.
Hope you had better luck than me!
Check
In my 65 years of living in Maine and NY I had no idea there were two separate Farmer’s Almanacs.
Wow.
My parents used to get it every year when I was growing up. Even when we were stationed overseas.
Maybe you just weren't a very good fisherman. LOL
Explains why I didn’t catch many fish, lol.
