The Old Farmer’s Almanac—Growing Strong, Still Publishing!

About The Old Farmer's Almanac

The 2027 Old Farmer's Almanac will arrive on September 1, 2026!

Written By: Catherine Boeckmann Executive Digital Editor and Master Gardener

A Tradition That Never Stopped

The Old Farmer’s Almanac has never stopped publishing since it was founded in 1792, during George Washington’s presidency. The 2027 Old Farmer’s Almanac—with forecasts for winter 2026-2027—will arrive on September 1, 2027!

For more than 230 years—through wars, economic upheavals, and global pandemics—we’ve continued to publish our annual yellow-covered edition.

That familiar little book remains a cherished tradition for generations of readers.

More Than a Yellow Book

Today, The Old Farmer’s Almanac lives far beyond the pages of the book itself.

In addition to the flagship Almanac, we publish the Garden Guide, a series of practical gardening handbooks, our beloved calendars, the Kids Almanac, and other special publications designed to help you grow, plan, observe, and enjoy the seasons.

Every Season. Every Day.

The Old Farmer’s Almanac reaches far beyond its printed pages. Online, you’ll find long-range forecasts, planting calendars, frost dates, and practical tools and calculators to help you plan, plant, and prepare.

Through our newsletters and social channels, we share timely guidance throughout the year—for gardeners, stargazers, and weather-watchers alike.

From time to time, there has been confusion among publications that use the name “almanac.” The Old Farmer’s Almanac, established in 1792, remains in continuous publication, in print and online, and continues to grow. 

As sure as the Sun will rise, we will be here: useful, with a pleasant degree of wisdom.

I have worked outside for 48 years of my life being a boat builder repairman and customizer. I do have to look for long-term weather to organize my life. I want the places I go is the old farmers almanac. You are pretty damn accurate thank you.

I was worried it was this book not going to be available anymore… whew!! I’ve used the old farmers almanac every year since old enough to garden independently and I’m 54 now. Very dependent on it… love the gardening stories and the weather predictions … our area is difficult to navigate without the old farmers almanac. Moral? I’m addicted to the book. Dependent on it. My Grandmama thought me how to read and use for our area and apply many of the gardening tips… even our nursery uses it so easier to speak with them re proper plants to grow in our area… etc.

Whew! Someone who knows my obsession with the Old Farmer's Almanac told me that it was no longer going to be published. Good to know they were referring to another publication and that this one lives on!

I have noticed your interesting posts on Facebook, but not on X (formerly Twitter). Any chance of making your posts available there ? Thank you

I’m so happy to hear that you will still be publishing your amazing Almanac.
