Description: SHOW NOTES KEY IDEAS:  I have always enjoyed thumbing through the Farmers' Almanac, reading the interesting stories and finding out what to expect from the weather this coming year.  But,Wow!, what I did not know.  Each year's Farmers' Almanac is written two years in advance, which means the weather predictions are made two years in advance.  How is this possibly don Well, the secrets of these weather predictions are in a formula that goes back 200 years.  There have only been seven forecasters over the entire 200 year history.  And, the current forecaster has a pseudonym of Caleb Weatherby to protect his identity. Our guest today, Sandi Duncan, is the first female editor in the history of the Farmers' Almanac.  She is a wealth of knowledge about a tool that has been crucial to farmers and others for hundreds of years.  It is a fun, agricultural topic that you are really going to enjoy.                                                                                                              CONTACT INFORMATION AND LINKS: Facebook: LINK Website: LINK Telephone: 207-755-2292 Where You Can Listen To Us: LISTEN TO US ON SATELLITE RADIO!
