The Other Almanac 2026 by Ana Ratner

Compiled and edited by Ana Ratner.

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.
