The directory
Every plumber, pharmacy, church, school, diner and town office, sorted the way a newcomer actually looks for them. Each category gets its own page, and every listing names the public source it came from.
Remember the phone book on the kitchen counter?
Your hometown, all in one place.
Our Town Almanac is an old-fashioned almanac for each town: the hometown directory, the town calendar, local history and the people who make the place, plus a monthly town newsletter. Built one town at a time for newcomers and locals alike. Basic listings are free.
What it is
An almanac used to be the book every household kept handy: the calendar, the useful facts, a bit of history. Our Town Almanac is that idea for your town, kept up to date.
Events, history & people
The town calendar and its festivals, a page of local history with where the records live, and Local Voices: conversations with neighbors, in their own words, once they’re recorded and approved.
The monthly newsletter
One short letter a month for each town: new businesses, the town calendar, a bit of local history, and a conversation with a neighbor. Coming soon.
Free listings
Every local business gets a basic listing at no charge. Owners can claim it, correct it, or add a business we missed. The directory is refreshed every month.
Built for newcomers…
Just moved? Start with the essentials: utilities, city and county offices, schools, doctors, groceries and a good mechanic, gathered in one plain, searchable place.
…and for the folks who’ve been here all along
Look up a number, find the shop on the square, read up on the town’s history, and keep up with what’s happening through the monthly letter.
