Sad news indeed. I’ve always purchased a copy and found it a great resource for gardening as well as just interesting reading.

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.

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.

I remember as a youth, I'd consult the Farmer's Almanac to see what days were good for catching fish and which days were not.
Even for days when the Almanac predicted good fishing, I caught nothing.

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.

It's the OTHER Farmer's Almanac - not the original one:

The original will still be published.
