Books & Pumpkins! Rather than throw your pumpkins from the season in the trash, consider composting, donating them to local farms or zoos, or do what we do, leave them for wildlife. As the pumpkins decompose, the seeds inside will be the next generations of vines.

It’s Woolly Bear season, which means these fuzzy caterpillars are popping up. They’re also known as the predictors of winter. According to folklore, if there is more black on a woolly bear, the more severe the winter weather.

October is Bat Appreciation Month! These photos are of the bat that got in the house. We set him on his way in the woods. Bats are amazing, and without them, it would be a world without fruits like bananas and avocados, which are among the 300 fruits that rely on bats for pollination.
