Nature Ramble - Fall Colors

  • Linda Loring Nature Foundation 110 Eel Point Road Nantucket, MA, 02554 (map)

Fall always proves to be one of the most picturesque times of the year. The green foliage we are used to takes on a whole other palate of warm colors right before the leaves fall. What causes these changes every year? Where do these colors come from? Why are the leaves that fall to the ground so important for the ecosystem? Join us on the LLNF trails as we explore these questions and more while enjoying the changing landscape!

We’ll explore sandplain grasslands and coastal heathland habitats, and enjoy views of Long Pond as we traverse a portion of the Linda Loring Nature Foundation's Eel Point Road property. We'll see what’s blooming, fruiting, flying, and crawling around the trails. Bring your nature questions- discussion is encouraged!

Rambles are free to attend and open to all!
