The 2022 Farmers’ Almanac hits store shelves this week and has 184 pages to help you plan your year ahead. It also features weather forecasts for the next 16 months, plus advice on ways to take cues from nature to live a more sustainable lifestyle.
Editor Pete Geiger states, “we encourage readers to take time to head outdoors and reconnect with the environment by growing their own food, shopping locally, and using natural remedies whenever possible.”
But even though “farmers” is in the title, the publication goes way beyond that. No longer does the Farmers’ Almanac contain husbandry tips for farm animals, but it does suggest the best days to cut your hair and lawn to increase growth, quit a bad habit, grow basil, and brew beer.
