Self Guided Easy Naturalist: All About Autumn

Autumn is the perfect time for an inquisitive walk through the woods. Deepen your understanding of the changes plant and animal life undergo as they prepare for winter, learning what signs to look for as you enjoy the crisp air and colorful leaves. Why do leaves change color, anyway? Which animals are migrating or preparing for hibernation? Find out answers to these questions, and many more. This installation will be up at Housatonic Flats in Great Barrington for a month and is friendly for all ages. The trail is considered easy – 0.9 miles roundtrip and relatively flat surface.
435 Stockbridge Road, Great Barrington.
