Book of the Week #40

The Old Farmer's Almanac has been published in Dublin, NH since 1792, and speaks "to all walks of life: tide tables for those who live near the ocean; sunrise and planting charts for those who live on the farm; recipes for those who live in the kitchen; and forecasts for those who don't like the question of weather left up in the air. The Almanac, North America's oldest continuously published periodical, comes out every year in September. The latest edition is on sale now wherever magazines and books are sold." (quoted from almanac.com)

This last week of September 2014 is expected, according to the almanac, to be sunny and warm in NH. Looking to use up all those tomatoes filling gardens this time of year? The almanac also includes recipes.
 
To learn more about the almanac you can watch a documentary about it, or listen to the story NPR's All Things Considered did on it recently.
