It's Fall, Y'all

The trees are showing their true colors!


 Did you know...

chlorophyll (the substance that helps plants create food)
masks the "true" color of the leaves?
As days grow shorter, 
plants stop their food making process and
chlorophyll is no longer produced.
This allows the true color of the leaves to show through.

Happy fall, y'all!
