Review Quotes:

"Ratner's almanac shirks the tradition of merely conveying information, instead working to bridge the gap between urban and rural communities through nature in a world that tangibly changes by the minute."
--Hyperallergic


"Ratner dreamed up a version that had the silliness, colorfulness, and chaotic energy, but also spoke to the realities of nature and ecology now. Thus The Other Almanac was born: a New York City-specific, full-bleed marvel . . . featuring an ode to cows, maps of community fridge locations, and a Bronx Zoo animal zodiac."
--Study Hall


"A unique and inherently fascinating compendium of facts that is thoroughly 'reader friendly' in organization and presentation...especially and unreservedly recommended..."
--Midwest Book Review




Publisher Marketing:

An annual that echoes The Old Farmer's Almanac. The Other Almanac is fun, fact-filled and fabulously beautiful, with a quirkily progressive and environment-friendly take on the coming year.

A sparkling new take on an age-old publication, The Other Almanac brings together contributions by writers, artists, and scientists on topics including environmentalism, botany, grief, seasonal savvy, and off-the-beaten-track curiosities, all presented in brilliant color and eye-popping design.

Highlights of the 2026 edition include a guide to foraging in NYC, checklists for signs of the seasons, a tide chart for NYC, obituaries for recently extinct animals and plants, and a list of objects left on the moon.
