The Farmer’s Almanac Ends: 207 Years of Weather, Folklore, and a Digital Dawn


Listen Later

Join us as we trace the Farmer’s Almanac from 1818 to its announced last edition in 2026. We explore its enduring blend of long-range forecasts, lunar lore, and practical wisdom, the mystery of the Caleb Weatherby method, and the Best Days calendar. Why did a 207-year print tradition endure in a world of instant online information—and what fills that voice of tradition, science, and community in a chaotic media environment? This episode reflects on prediction, belief, and the rituals that help us navigate the seasons, and what comes after print.
