Hello Wednesday! Chelsea here.

It’s going to be a little toasty out there over the next couple of days. So don’t mind me, I’ll just be over here daydreaming about fall and all of the amazing activities that come along with it. From football games to pumpkin patches, there’s a lot to love about this time of year. But my favorite activity to say goodbye to summer and hello to autumn is, without a doubt, apple picking. It’s fun for the whole family plus you wind up with tons of pie supplies!

Butterfly Ridge Is An Enchanted Place For Beautiful, Native Butterflies 🦋
Pollinators are the unsung heroes of the garden. They keep us fed and they’re adorable, so it’s easy to fall in love with them. And there’s nowhere more enchanting to appreciate their beauty than Butterfly Ridge in Hocking Hills.
