Summer isn’t even officially over and already we can feel the changes in the weather as nature prepares for the fall season. For some, fall is a welcomed change from the heat of summer; however, I think it’s fair to say that many of us wouldn’t mind if summer continued for a few more months. But with fall fast approaching, here are some reasons why you shouldn’t be disappointed with the summer ending and fall soon beginning. 

Kids Have Gone Back to School

For all the parents out there, you can finally exhale because you’ve made it through the summer. Your children are officially back in school and the task of keeping them occupied all summer is finally over!

Fun Events like Berry-Picking

Another great aspect of fall is enjoying the activities that are native to this time of year, such as berry-picking. Activities like this offer many benefits such as:

• An opportunity to take a break from technology and just enjoy being in the presence of others;
• Great way to spend time together as a family and create memories you can look back on fondly for years to come. 

So, if you live in or around Sudbury or you’re just passing through consider making a day event at one of Sudbury’s local berry-picking farms, Ruby Berry Farms, Lise’s Strawberry Farm or Valley Orchard. 

Great Time for Travel

And although you may be missing the warm temperature of summer, take heart that fall is still a great time of year to travel and actually comes with benefits. With kids back in school and the majority of people using their vacation days throughout the summer, you’ll find that many travel destinations and hotels have less traffic during the fall season.
