Lia Leendertz's reinvention of the traditional, rural almanac has become an annual must-have for readers keen to reconnect with the seasons, appreciate the outdoors, and discover ways to mark and celebrate each month. It is the ideal stocking filler, containing something for everyone. The 2025 edition is the eighth in her series and has the theme 'ancient astronomy', including a megalith of the month and ancient constellation stories from around the world. It is illustrated in beautiful bold woodcuts by artist Sarah Abrehart.
A Year of Feasts & Festivities: a celebration of the seasons is a collection of seasonal recipes drawn from Lia's almanacs, featuring sweet treats for saints days, hearty meals for harvest time, semlor and dumplings, barmbrack and bonfire toffee apples. It is the second in her 'celebration of the seasons' series, following A Year in Story & Song, which is a collection of the stories and songs of the almanacs, featuring mischievous boggarts, saints and sailors, leprechauns and dragons, pilgrimages and charms, to add a little magic to your journey through each year.
