You’re invited to join The Old Farmer's Almanac for our free Equinox 2016 show — LIVE on Almanac.com! We’ll be broadcasting LIVE this Saturday, March 19, in partnership with SLOOH astronomers. (In North America, the vernal equinox is March 19 or March 20 just after midnight, depending on your time zone.) Witness this half-hour event, featuring the Sun in all its majesty with live solar views from the Prescott Observatory in Arizona, as well as the spectacle of the aurora borealis from northern latitudes. WHEN: Saturday, March 19, at 2:00 PM PDT / 5:00 PM EDT / 21:00 UTC (More Time Zones: http://goo.gl/hIyyVf) Bob Berman, Almanac contributor and SLOOH astronomer, will discuss the cultural significance of the equinox. Mare-Anne Jarvela, senior editor of The Old Farmer's Almanac and the Almanac Garden Guide, will share wisdom on gardening, spring folklore, and nature’s signs of spring. Whether you’re a sky gazer, gardener, or seeker of a deeper connection to the ebb and flow of nature, join the global community as we all celebrate this moment — as humans have done since antiquity. Watch the live show on our Spring Equinox page here — Saturday!
