Have you ever wondered about the brilliant reds and golden yellows that show up in the woods in late October and early November? You may have noticed that both leaves and berries turn many shades of color. Learn how this happens and why these colors may have
evolved, and explore the marvels of leaf and fruit color chemistry with docent naturalist and nutrition scientist Dr. Julianna Pax. This afternoon talk will include an indoor presentation and an outdoor walk in the woods to identify colorful autumn players. Many of these eye-catching shrub and tree species can be planted in your own landscape.
