Celebrate the beauty of autumn on an easy-going 2-mile hike with Robert Ayotte through the colorful woods around the Eddy Discovery Center.  This guided walk is perfect for nature lovers of all ages – from curious beginners to experienced enthusiasts.  As we stroll along flat to gently rolling trails, we’ll take a closer look at trees and shrubs that define our fall landscape.  You’ll learn:

-Why leaves change color and how to recognize common fall foliage

- What kinds of fruits, nuts, and berries are out this time of year

- How trees and shrubs prepare for winter dormancy

This will be a relaxed, family-friendly outing focused on enjoying the season while discovering the fascinating lives of woody plants in fall.  Binoculars and/or hand lens are recommended for a closer look
