Fall Wildflowers of the The Autumn Equinox

In New England, autumn is the season of clear blue skies, beautiful leaf color, migrating birds, and bountiful crops of apples. Autumn arrives with the autumnal equinox, one of two days during the year when days and nights are of equal length everywhere on earth, which occurs this year on September 23. Come celebrate the equinox and welcome in the new season. We’ll talk a little about why the seasons occur, why day length changes from season to season, and celebrate the equinox through poetry and readings. But mainly, we’ll talk about the plants we see, especially those that are in flower and fruit at this time of year. Note: Meeting location will be emailed as part of the Registration Confirmation email. All walks meet rain or shine.
