 | | Anja Kohler/Getty Images | Dear Reader,
What is it about calendars that we find so fascinating? They’re a great tool for writing down important dates, appointments, or for remembering when the next holiday is coming. That doesn’t tell the whole story, though. Something about a calendar feels magical, as if each little block of time is an opportunity or possibility.
Calendars also give us a chance to explore different topics, like which clouds are often mistaken for UFOs, how double rainbows form, or how Evel Knievel crossed Idaho’s Snake River Canyon in a rocket. Of course, your average calendar won’t share all those fascinating things with you. If you want a calendar that has that kind of fun, you’ll need The Old Farmer’s Almanac Country Calendar and Weather Calendar, and both are in the 2022 Old Farmer’s Almanac Club membership box.
These calendars are filled with conversation starters (Did you know the two people who wrote “America the Beautiful” never met?), the best days for fishing each month (the 2nd-18th for next March), and lunar events (like the upcoming Total Lunar Eclipse). You’ll never be at a loss for an interesting fact or a bit of wit or wisdom to share.
Join the Old Farmer’s Almanac Club today and you can find out more about all of this, including when and why brown snow fell in Vermont and New Hampshire. |  | | Xavier Ascanio/Getty Images | | | Country Wisdom | “Last Fourth of July, I was invited to watch some fireworks from a friend’s home on the side of the mountain. I admit that I did enjoy them, but I think that I paid more attention to the fireflies flashing back in response.”
This is the kind of Country Wisdom you’ll find each month in The Old Farmer’s Almanac Country Calendar. These bits of wisdom remind us to slow down and appreciate the simple joys of nature, of life in the barnyard or the hayfield, and the changing seasons.
We even went back to 1823 for some wisdom that feels so precious these days:
“Cast your eyes upon yonder wavy wheat field and see the lovely promise of full reward for toil and labor! Now change your view to the charming cornfields along the mellow paths.”
Has a farm ever sounded so idyllic? | | Ask The Old Farmer | Flip open the Weather Calendar and each month you can learn a timely lesson from The Old Farmer. What is a cold core funnel cloud? Is it safe to use morning dew as drinking water? How does day length affect fall foliage? What are lenticular clouds?
Not all the answers are what you might expect, either. How thick must ice be before it is safe to walk on? You might think you know this, but it’s trickier than it seems. Are mammatus clouds high, middle, or low clouds? The answer is none of the above, but do you know why? Or how volcanoes have a say in the matter?
If you’re the curious type, you’ll want to get these calendars right away. You get much more than just the calendars, too. The 2022 Old Farmer’s Almanac Club includes the latest edition of The Old Farmer’s Almanac, a peek back through time with replicas of the 1922 and 1822 Almanacs, monthly updates to help you track earthly and celestial events, and a whole bundle of FREE bonuses! | | | | | Get Your Special Pass—Access to the World's Most Beloved Almanac! |
