The Boston Globe is predicting a brilliant fall foliage season.  The rainy weather this past summer combine with the cool dry weather in September will yield brilliant colors in October.  Many of the trees in our yard are turning yellow, gold and red.  Below are links to the Globe article and a link to a map that forecasts peak by region.

Lenox Foliage

Can’t believe we’re already talking about fall foliage, because we’re in the middle of a delightful summer.  But we have to mention a website that we just became aware of, http://foliage.org/massachusetts/bed-and-breakfast/brook-farm-inn-berkshires-bb/.   It’s all about New England in the scenic autumn season, and we’re glad to say that there’s a lovely write-up of Brook Farm Inn.

Callers to Brook Farm Inn in Lenox, Massachusetts are asking about fall foliage — they want to know if the leaves are changing yet.  The answer is, a little bit.  You can see a few maples with orange leaves at the end of some branches, and even though the days are beautiful and warm, the evenings get cool. So that will bring on more changing colors.  Come see the Berkshires for yourself in this beautiful season!

Lenox, Massachusetts is a prime destination for September and October.  The Lenox Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring these great events, and we’re telling all our guests at Brook Farm Inn about them.  Call us for more information.
