Best Places to See the Fall Foliage

When Mother Nature changes her colors to autumn splendor, people race to experience the reds, yellows, and oranges of fall. Many people don’t think of Florida as a hotspot of autumn color, but there are definitely locations where individuals can go to view fall foliage.

Florida’s changing colors can arrive as late as November due to the warmer climate. The Sunshine State displays her colors when other states are past their peak. It’s possible to discover pockets of spectacular fall foliage by taking a drive along rural roads.

Edward Ball Wakulla Springs State Park

Revel in the fall foliage that surrounds the sapphire waters of one of the largest and deepest freshwater springs in the world. The lake is home to alligators, manatees, and a diverse abundance of wildlife. Colors can be viewed from a diving platform or by riverboat.

Falling Waters State Park

Visitors can view the highest waterfall in Florida – that’s actually a sinkhole – framed by the vivid colors of autumn. There’s an access path and viewing platform.

Morningside Nature Center

In addition to autumn colors, there’s a multitude of fall-blooming wildflowers to view.

Three Rivers State Park

Maples are well known for their intense fall colors. Pockets of brilliantly colored maples and oaks clothed in red, yellow and orange are a stunning contrast to the pines that grow among them. Viewing can be done by hiking trail or by cruising the lake.

Torreya State Park

The park is a favorite for fall colors and features maples, sourwood, and sweetgum. Taking the Weeping Ridge Trail, visitors can view the foliage and the park’s waterfall. The park is also home to rare trees.

Wekiwa Springs State Park

Visitors will be treated to the brilliant oranges and yellows of the cypress, maple, sweetgum, sugarberry, and persimmon trees. They grow amongst palm trees for an interesting contrast.

Entertainment for Your Fall Festival

Autumn festivals are a tradition as old as time when people gave thanks and celebrated a bountiful harvest. While most people won’t be bringing in crops, they’ll be harvesting fun when you hold a fall festival. Autumn is an excellent time for an autumn get together with entertainments to match. Don’t forget the music.

Bounce House

A staple of any fair, carnival or festival, renting a bounce house will provide hours of fun for children ages 6 to 12.

Carnival Games

No festival would be complete without some games of chance. Hosts can rent carnival games encompassing Whack a Mole, skee ball, basketball throw, and dunk tank. You can also include a safe battle axe throw, balloon pop, strongman game, and the ever-popular ring toss.

Face Painting

Children love face painting and there’s always a long waiting line to have their face adorned in everything from unicorns and wild animals to butterflies and superheroes. All that’s required is some Halloween makeup and talented artists.

Food Fest

Every festival must have food and there are multiple ways that can be supplied. The festival can include a chili cookoff, pie baking contest, BBQ, or practically any type of fall food offering. Include some fall favorites such as cider, spiced doughnuts, and caramel apples.

For large neighborhood gatherings, food trucks may be the solution. There are also machines that can be rented to provide a continuous supply of rotisserie hotdogs, snow cones, cotton candy, and popcorn.

Scavenger Hunt

A scavenger hunt can be as simple or complex as the host desires. There are options for adults to the youngest children.

Trampoline

People of all ages like to bounce and a bungee jump trampoline provide a safe means for teens and adults to experience the exhilaration of flying through the air.

Yard Games

Popular board games have made the leap to adult size yard games ranging from checkers to Connect Four.

Fall Festival Entertainment

Public and private fall festivals are a tradition, providing a farewell to summer and celebrating the autumn season. Whether the event is held as a private event or conducted by local businesses or communities, there are some things to keep in mind.

Consider the atmosphere to be created and think about the sights, sounds and flavors of a county fair. There are always certain entertainments that have a long line to be played. Equipping a fall festival with the right entertainment will result in a successful event.

Inflatables

A bounce house or playground for younger festival-goers is essential. There’s a myriad of bright and colorful themes from which to choose that will appeal to children. Adults enjoy competition and festival organizers can choose from an extensive range of obstacle courses, rock-climbing walls or a corn maze.

Mechanical Rides

For those that want something more challenging, consider a bungee trampoline, a virtual rollercoaster, mechanical bull, or a space-based interactive arena. There are also inflatables that enable people to test their skills at snowboarding, surfing and skateboarding.

Games

A range of games is critical and there’s an extensive selection from which to choose. Organizers can offer traditional favorites from skee ball, wack a mole, battle-ax game and ring toss to Plinko, basketball throw, connect four and football challenge. Photo booths are also available.

Music

A steady stream of upbeat music enhances the atmosphere and encourages individuals to have fun. Strategically placed speakers ensure that music reaches all areas of the festival grounds. Rock music is the traditional choice and it doesn’t have to rely on current hits. Don’t be reticent about including some “oldies” from artists encompassing Lady Gaga, Bruce Springsteen, Beyonce, Pink, Madonna, Aretha Franklin, Joan Jett, Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears.

Food

No festival would be complete without food. Virtually everyone enjoys a BBQ for a more filling option, but don’t overlook cotton candy, snow cones, popcorn and hotdogs for those that want to walk the festival while they munch. Don’t forget to have enough tables and chairs so people can eat and rest in comfort.
