The air is crisp and fresh. The mid-September sun melts over the changing leaf cover on the hillsides with a poignant light, unique to this time of year in the Northeast. The shift of the autumnal equinox is palpable.
This is truly one of the best times of year to be in New England. And if the stunning array of fall foliage heading toward its peak weren’t enough, the abundant harvest from a wealth of local farms evokes a heartfelt comfort, reminiscent of grandma’s kitchen—of glass jars of canned pickles, tomatoes, fruits, and jams lined up on pantry shelves; of hot, steaming bread being pulled from ovens; of freshly baked pies cooling in the window.
