I have been using the Algonquin Porch Calendar since 2000.
It was given to me as a gift that year. At that time I found
the theme of porches different and interesting but I liked
most the variety of colors for the days of the month. I know
of no other calendar who does this. I've purchased it ever
since.

You'll love the splendid photos for each month -- and you'll wish with all your heart that you could be there!

This used to be a wonderful calendar. However, Algonquin redesigned it in 2008, and it became garish, frenetic, and in all other ways, ugly. Unfortunately, a friend who didn't know any better gave me this year's version as a gift, so I can see the publishers opted to not listen to all the complaints posted last year, and have repeated all the same mistakes. It's already in the recycling bin, and I've ordered Willow Creek's "A View From the Porch" as a replacement. Hopefully, my friend won't notice the change, but I simply couldn't stand looking at Algonquin's version every day, particularly when knowing how beautiful their calendar used to be.

I love the Porch calendar every year. It has the most gorgeous pictures of porches - all taken during the month appropriate time of year. Just lovely!

Fine for a very large size wall calendar. Make sure you have the space to accomodate the size of this item.

I love the Out on the Porch Calendar from Algonquin and look forward to seeing the new one for each new year. It is bright and colorful, contains interesting quotes, lists all major holidays, and gives ample room on each day to write in appointments, etc. The photos are fabulous and inspire peace and tranquility... a lovely addition to my sometimes chaotic office! My single disappointment is the lack of previous and future month calendars on each page for quick reference. Still, this is one calendar that will grace my wall for years to come.

I have to order this calendar every year. The pictures are always outstanding. They make you want to step right in and sit a spell!

I have this calendar in my kitchen, and it greets me cheerily every morning with its inventive design and beautiful photographs. Can't wait to buy next year's edition!

This calendar is beautiful. it also comes with great postcards of each month. The boxes for each day are very large, so you are able to actually write events in. overall i am very pleased with this calendar and definitely recommend it to others!

Love this calendar...beautiful pictures...big enough to write important dates on it. Looks great in my kitchen in the wooden holder I have. I took the most inexpensive delivery option but it took longer than expected to receive in the mail. I ordered on 1/14 and didn't receive the calendar until 2/12.
