The Science of Autumn Colors

Come to the Arboretum during the statewide celebration of science to experience nature. Explore the colors of the Arboretum’s prairies, forests, and wetlands during this annual time of change. Learn how plants transform fall landscapes with shades of yellow, red, orange, and brown. Join us to investigate the science of fall foliage and create nature-based arts and crafts.
