We have entered the season that heightens all our senses. The temperatures are gradually decreasing, the tastes of all things pumpkin and apple, and nature changing its colour palette to oranges, yellows, and reds. You might hear the honk of birds flying south and hear the crunch of leaves beneath your feet and experience the smell of earthy, crisp air. The fall season is upon us and we have a list of events in the region for you to discover and enjoy the transition from summer into the cozy season.
