A Farmer’s Almanac

The book features some Native American names for the full moon. Each month’s moon would have had different names given by different tribes or peoples, hence the number of words on each page. The names have appeared in various North American farmers’ almanacs although there is some tally with British appellations, which include the Moon After Yule, Wolf, Lenten, Egg, Milk, Flower, Hay, Grain, Fruit, Harvest, Hunter’s Moon and the Moon Before Yule.
