Now that September is upon us, it seems that we can almost smell Fall in the air! These fall quotes are the perfect way to start a great season.

Summer may be fun, but when the weather gets cooler and the leaves start falling, we can tell that a change is happening. Autumn is the transition season that leads us from the hot, bright sunny months into the cold, dark nights of winter and all of the fun the end of the year will bring.

When Fall begins, we are just a hop, skip and jump away from Halloween, Thanksgiving, and (dare I say it?!) Christmas.

Pumpkins, hot apple cider, warm sweaters, fluffy scarves, boots… these are all things we have to look forward to in the coming weeks.

So whether autumn is your favorite time of year, or you just want to get in the in the mood for a new season, here are some of the best fall quotes to help.

The Autumn season is known as Fall in the US and Canada because one of the characteristics of the season is the shedding of leaves from deciduous trees.

The colors we all associate with Fall – the transition from green to light yellow, deep gold, orange, crimson and dark red – are all inspired by this natural process.

Falling leaves and the colors of the season have fascinated writers and poets for centuries. Here are some of their best quotes about fall.

Though Autumn is traditionally a season of letting things go, it can also be a season of renewal and rebirth. A time to adopt a fresh new outlook and find enjoyment in the little things.

There may be fewer flowers, but there are plenty of ripe fruits to be found! From group hikes to apple picking and pumpkin patches, fall is the best season to get out outside with friends and family.

Many churches and local organizations have pumpkin patches where you can go and snap a few photos and buy a few pumpkins. Whether you want to make a pie or a Halloween lantern, this is the perfect place!
