I find it very difficult these days to find a functional calendar with big squares and lunar cycles.
There's a lot of little details - like my calendar will go from January 2020 to Jan 2021 inclusive (because doctors are always making appointments for January back in June and we need next year's calendar before this one comes out)
At first, I was just going to do something simple with pictures of the farm and have enough printed for next year's Christmas Gifts, but after talking to a few people, they want the same thing I want in a calendar. So maybe I need to make more?

And for my part, I shall not wholly fail in my task if anything that passes through this night can still grow fairer or bear fruit and flower again in days to come. For I too am a steward. Did you not know?" Gandolf
The wishbone never could replace the backbone.
I also really like it if the paper is such that when I write something on January, the shadow of it doesn't get imprinted on February

What type of pen do you like to write with?
Totally crazy idea warning...
What if we had a permies.com calendar?
I was thinking at first that I could do something simple, like a print on demand. But this doesn't give me much control over paper quality and other factors. Print on demand often come in set sizes and the binding is often not customizable.
What if we did something bigger? Maybe with a Kickstarter? I could work with my local printer and make something for everyone.
Crazy idea. I should just ignore the voices in my head.
...and yet...
I don't know. Could it be done?
Have a contest for the best photos from permies members.
We could have the calendar ready by June, then hold the Kickstarter to pre-sell it... To be delivered in September or October (not December or January like so many calendars I get).
I don't know. It's an idea.

The theme will be something like "year in the life of crowing hen farm" with beautiful pictures of animals, farm, flowers, and farm-ish related things.
