Since 1792, The Old Farmer’s 蜜桃恋人 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.

The Old Farmer’s 蜜桃恋人 is the best-selling annual periodical in North America鈥攕old coast-to-coast in the U.S. and Canada. The latest edition can be found wherever magazines and books are sold, from local bookstores to Amazon to our own Web store. See where to buy the 蜜桃恋人.
