Fill your planters and flower beds with fall favorites—you can’t go wrong with mums.

Take a hike or bike ride through a local park.

Get lost in a corn maze and use your wits to find a way out.

Sip warm apple cider on the porch. A low-sugar alternative is sugar-free Alpine Spiced Apple Cider.

Now that you’re no longer timid in front of the camera, it’s time to take your family Christmas photo. You’ll be all set to get your holiday cards out on time.

Carve a pumpkin and toast the seeds.

Check out local antique stores. Enjoy the stroll through memory lane or hunt for a particular piece to freshen up your home décor.

Walk outdoors on a foggy morning and enjoy the crisp fall air.

Autumn is the perfect time to run a race. Look for local races that are a distance just outside of your comfort zone and see just what you can accomplish.

Make a batch of chili and freeze it in small-portion containers.

Start Christmas shopping before the weather turns brutally cold. As Christmas draws near, you’ll appreciate your forethought.

Whatever sounds appealing to you, get out and do it. It’s time to enjoy all that fall has to offer.
