Linus explains what

Old Farmer's Almanac

In continuous publication since 1792, The Old Farmer’s Almanac
has spoken to all walks of life: planting charts for those who grow
their own food; recipes for those who live in the kitchen; 
Moon and sunrise times for those who watch the skies;
and forecasts for those who don’t like the
question of weather left up in the air.
