http://www.farmersalmanac.com/ - Today, as in the past, the Farmers'
Almanac is a part of American everyday life, culture, and tradition.
City folks, as well as country farmers, prize the Farmers' Almanac
highly. People still consult it as frequently as did generations past.
Set in a nostalgic theme, the 2001 Farmers' Almanac remains filled
with entertaining short stories, good cooking, fun, facts, forecasts,
timely household tips, calendars for fishing and of course gardening.
After all, nearly everybody is a farmer at heart.


http://www.almanac.com/ - Since 1792, The Old Farmer's Almanac has
published useful information for people in all walks of life: tide
tables for those who live near the ocean; sunrise tables 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. "Our main endeavour is to be useful, but
with a pleasant degree of humour."
