Garden Fall Or’decor

 

We celebrated the beginning of my favorite season this past week by decorating Hershey Children’s Garden. Autumn is my favorite period of the year with the start of so many things and the closing of others. Fall, to me, means cozy cool weather, brilliant leaf colors and fresh cider with doughnuts.

To celebrate the entrance of autumn, the Garden was decorated with zany scarecrows and other fall-related paraphernalia. You need to come down and see a gourd spider descend from her tree top lair. See if you can find a super hero and check out a scarecrow made out of a garden hose! What makes the display so special are the many people who contribute to it. Each year several area garden clubs and garden volunteers make original scarecrows. I also let volunteers and other garden staff get creative in assembling a montage of fall decorating fun. I am always amazed at the results.
