Fall into the Colorful Season of Autumn in the Northern United States

COLOR 

The season most of us remember as the one that announces the start of a new school year is also the most colorful of seasons in the U.S. The calendar months associated with the season of autumn or fall, which is the English word for this season, are September, October and November. September is summer’s final hoorah and in the last days her nights can feel like the approach of fall. The night breezes are kissed with coolness, and those of us in Northern states bring out the light blankets to huddle under, in the wee hours of the morning. As day approaches though we toss off those blankets and don our summer garb with deviance as we beg for just one more, warm day in which to bask in the sun and enjoy the brilliance of golden, sunny daylight. The days are getting shorter as nightfall creeps faster into day and steels away some of our precious light. We know all too well, that the darkness of night will start sooner each day, so we enjoy the sunshine while we can.

FARMERS 

American farmers greet autumn with thankful hearts and work-weary hands as they labor to bring in the harvest from their fields. This is the season that bears fruit for their hard work of the spring and summer months. Crops mean cash to farming communities all over the U.S. and help feed the local community as well as to share their abundant produce with non-local markets. Autumn brings not only harvest time but it also brings color to the fields and woods, especially up north. The cooler night temperatures help prepare the trees for winter and bring out the colorful leaves that splash red, yellow and orange among the fields and roadways.
