October 15, 2013 - Peter Geiger, Farmer's Almanac

Host, John Allin, welcomes Peter Gieger, editor of the Farmer’s Almanac. If Peter hadn’t become the seventh editor of the world-famous Farmers' Almanac, he would have wanted to write a syndicated column offering handy, time saving household hints.  Luckily for famous hint maven, Heloise, Peter’s fate was sealed from a very early age.  His father, longtime editor, Ray Geiger, began priming him for editorship at the tender age of 7. 

Peter began working under his father as Associate Editor in the mid-70’s, shortly after graduating from Villanova University with a bachelor of science in business administration.  He assisted with 16 editions before taking over as Editor in 1994.  His father served as editor for 60 consecutive years before passing the torch to Peter.
