Camden Garden Centre : Dreaming of Autumn

It’s almost the end of September and the nights are drawing in. Welcome to the start of Autumn! The mornings are becoming crisp, leaves are falling from trees and with that comes beautiful foliage. We love this time of year, so we thought we’d share some photos of our favorite things about this time of year: the colours, smells and tastes associated with autumn! There isn’t much natural beauty left after the heatwave we experienced earlier this summer; however, we can still enjoy it when we look at these photos from last year. It’s fair to say that nothing compares to being immersed in nature – whether it be at home or while on holiday. And what could be better than spending some time surrounded by Mother Nature? If you feel the same way, take a look at the following blog post and discover where you can go to experience all things autumn!

This is one of our favourite ways to enjoy the autumn season. Whether it’s on your own, with a loved one, or as a family excursion, nothing compares to being surrounded by nature. There are many different types of woods to choose from, so you are bound to find one that you love. If you do decide to go on a woodland walk, keep your eyes peeled for fallen leaves, acorns and native berries. You can also go apple picking to experience the autumn season. Where apples are grown, you can head out to a pick-your-own orchard and harvest your own apples. Make sure you have a taste test before you leave, as there are so many different varieties to choose from!
