Things you love about autumn?

We live in the woods and this is a farm......NO leaf raking is happening here. That said, we love watching the leaves fall AND color the ground. The house is surrounded by black walnut trees so on a windy day in the fall it is bang, bang, bang on the slate roof. We just had a metal roof company up and realized that can't happen until the main culprit is down but walnut is worth big money so....... Maybe next year.

Are you looking forward to collecting on walnuts or walnut? Is the tree in good health?
Far as I know, squirrels are great at replanting walnut trees. True?

LOL....COLLETTE you are absolutely right about replanting! We have new trees every year. Our big trees are very healthy and we have walnuts galore. I have harvested some this year because of covid but have left plenty for the squirrels......maybe we will be living off walnuts and spring water in the time of covid. Oh and maybe burdock root which is almost as prevalent as the walnuts.
