  Different editions December 13, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is the standard National edition, which is fine; however, I wish Amazon sold the southern edition. You can tell which one it is by looking at the 1st or 2nd page, which you can see here because Amazon lets you!
I just left OFA website, almanac.com, to order the southern edition, but didn't because shipping was outrageous: $4.95 usps; $14.95 ups 3-5 days; $24.95 ups 3-day. Can you believe that?!
I think I'll order the National version here (my profile shows MN but I moved to TN Spring 2008).

Very little gardening in the Gardeners Almanac. I specifically wanted planting dates and that section is So general I could have figured it out myself. Waste of money for me.
  A waste of money. November 25, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
If you want to waste money for slick advertisements and unuseable information this is the book for you. Made the mistake of buying one, flipping through, asking, "what happened to the "old" information they used to pack into the book?", and proceeding to return it for a refund.
  My father loved this gift November 16, 2008 I purchased this to add to my father's birthday gift. He absolutely loved it. I haven't seen him that excited over a gift (especially considering it was an "add-on" gift) in a long time. He is obsessed with the weather, so I figured this was something he would like. I was right.
  Pretty accurate November 12, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have bought the Old Farmers Almanac for over 20 years and always have fun with the information and the almost always on track weather predictions. I at least know what to expect. Our local weatherman said they aren't accurate but I disagree. They follow all the natural ways that people have predicted weather for years and are usually really close. They always have interesting articles too.
