Fall has arrived in zone 4 bringing cooler temperatures and changes to plant life.
Blooms remain on some plants but trees are taking nutrients from their leaves triggering fall colors and a rapid departure. Yearly mountain sabbaticals are nearly over as there is a small window for “viewing the Aspen”. The beauty we enjoyed during the spring and summer is coming to a close ushering in new glorious crops like pumpkins and squash. You might see smoke from a chimney, have a limited number of barbecues to attend and soon be invited for comfort foods that may include favorite soups using vegetables from the garden. Cheers!
