This is the 5th year we've purchased the Farmer's Almanac Everyday Calendar. It's a page-a-day calendar, and each day has some interesting new fact or quote.If you enjoy The Old Farmer's Almanac, you'll very likely enjoy this calendar, too - it's published by the same company and like the almanac, is chock full of little-known-facts, tips, practical advice, proverbs and quotes.Each day, there's a tip (maybe gardening, cooking, home remedies, or just how to do something better), an interesting fact, or a thought-provoking quote from an historical figure. Each day is illustrated with a black and white drawing that is whimsical or old-fashioned.At the bottom of each page there are 3 widely-spaced lines where you can write notes for the day. We don't really use that feature but it's nice to see. Holidays are noted as well.Every now and then there's kind of a dud (like the day on the 2014 calendar where they suggested that for long-lasting chrysanthemums, you should buy one with many buds in various stages of bloom!...so obvious). but they are pretty few and far between.Most of them are interesting, witty, practical or thoughtful. So often my husband asks me, "Did you see the Farmer's Almanac calendar today? That was interesting..." and then we'll talk about it. We keep it on top of the microwave where we see it first thing every day.My husband is a big fan of the Old Farmer's Almanac and getting it and the page-a-day calendar are things he looks forward to all year long.We've bought many different page-a-day calendars over the years, and often lost interest after a short time. But this one has kept my, and my husband's interest - we look forward to tearing off a new page each day and seeing what interesting new tidbit is there. This is our 5th year buying this calendar and if you like the almanac, trivia, or folk knowledge, I think you'd enjoy it too..
Yay! It's finally here! It's killing me not to read every day for the whole year but I gotta be strong. Love the daily wisdom, hints, and humor this calendar provides.
Perfect size for writing all of my to do's. Love the layout. The tips and the tricks that that the almanac provides and are inserted in this book are great and some bring smiles to your face. Very sturdy and well made. This one is not going to crush in my purse. I will buy this again.

Have used the calendar the last few years. Room to write dates, plus nearly every day it has facts on daily life. Wish the beautiful covered book came with a cover that could turn over like the pages so you could lay it opened on the current week. I have to tear, separate, the beautiful cover from the yearly pages.
This was not what I expected from the Almanac. When I think of the Farmer's Almanac, I think of tides, moon phases, planting/harvesting advise, and just generally helpful information. This is a daily calendar that does comment on the quarter moon phases and has the occasional factoid. However, in between those useful bits of information you get meaningless quotes from random people. I am disappointed in this purchase and would not buy it again. I would rather look at pictures or something funny or have a puzzle to do everyday for my money than have this.
This calendar is even larger than I thought and has a nice solid feel to it. There's lots of space for each day to write my own notes, or who has a birthday, things to do that day, etc etc. The color of the paper is a very faint yellow, which is much more pleasing to the eye (even to my old ones) than a harsh snow-white color. And I love all the info that is given for each day, sometimes historical facts, sometimes "wise words", notes about plants and plantings. And at the beginning of each months 2 pages are dedicated to "folklore sayings and wisdoms", sometimes funny and sometimes sage advice.I just LOVE this calendar and will order it again for the coming year. I'm hooked.
