History
Summarize
Perspective
Yankee Publishing, Inc. (YPI) was founded by Robb Sagendorph with his wife, Beatrix, in 1935 with the publication of the first issue of Yankee Magazine.[1][2]
Four years later, in 1939, Sagendorph purchased the Old Farmer's Almanac, the country's oldest continuously published periodical. Now 200+ years old, the publication is more widely read than at any time in its history.[3][4]
YPI is a 100% employee-owned business, run out of the same barn-red building where it was founded.[5]
In 2013, YPI expanded their offerings by acquiring McLean Communications, which includes New Hampshire magazine and New Hampshire Business Review.[6]
The company has shifted some of its focus into offering custom publishing services.[7][8]
In July 2019, Yankee Publishing acquired Family Tree Magazine. [9] After the sale, Yankee President and CEO Jamie Trowbridge stated Family Tree fit well with the company's suite of brands, which include Yankee, The Old Farmer's Almanac, and New Hampshire magazines. Trowbridge also noted that, “[both] Yankee and The Old Farmer’s Almanac are publications that include history in their editorial coverage. Family Tree’s coverage of family history is a nice fit.”[10]
