Buckhannon, WV is one of the friendliest small towns in the area. 2009 Farmer's Almanac Calendars Have Arrived
BUCKHANNON , WV – In early 2007, the Buckhannon Upshur Retail Merchants Association (BURMA) purchased 2008 almanac calendars in an effort to carry on a tradition started by Home Hardware. Proceeds from the sale of the calendars were a great fundraising opportunity for the organization and BURMA will again be selling the calendars for 2009.
BURMA members participating on the 2009 calendar are: A & D Floral Creations, A Domestic Friend, A Governor's Inn, Centennial Motel & Pub, Kelley C. Tierney, Agent, State Farm Insurance, Loudin Insurance Agency, Inc., Mike Ross, Inc., The Sweet Life Bakery, Wendy's, Whimsical Treasures, Angelic Designs, Colonial Hotel-Motel, Faith Lodge B&B, Freedom Bank, and The Sign Guy. By involving local businesses, the calendars promote Buckhannon, Upshur County, and the downtown area while continuing to make them available as a resource for the local farmer’s and community.
The calendars are produced by the AmerICan Calendar Company. It was established in 1876 and each almanac calendar has over 4,900 pieces of information listed on the 8 page red and black flip calendar. All major holidays are marked clearly and they also include: sun sets, weather forecast, fishing guide, zodiac planting, zodiac harvesting, breeding record, moon phases, almanac calculations, chronological cycles, and much more.
If you are interested in purchasing the new 2009 Almanac Calendars, they are $5.00 each and are currently available at these fine merchants: A & D Floral Creations, Momselle Maternity & Nana Kay’s, The Sweet Life Bakery, and Whimsical Treasures. Watch for more locations in the coming weeks.
