The school year begins and Boston shines brighter than ever while bustling with festivals and celebrations to satisfy every taste. There is also Fall foliage to admire, fitness events, and a plethora of fun and oft free things to do. September is full of events guaranteed to offer a memorable start to the Fall season!

Fall in Boston brings a season packed with family fun and adventure. From crisp hikes to vibrant foliage, apple orchards, pumpkin patches, and harvest festivals, there's something for everyone.

There is no apple that tastes better than the kind that you pick yourself. Local orchards invite visitors to pick-your-own apples just as the leaves begin to change their hue. Find an orchard near you and start planning a fun fall activity. Call ahead, as some may require reservations.

Fall is upon us and autumn weather calls for outdoor fun. Here's a great list of Corn Mazes near Boston with cool themes and family friendly activities for all ages to enjoy.

New England is usually chock full of fall festivals dedicated to pumpkins, jack-o-lanterns, scarecrows and spooky fun: the icons of fall and of course Halloween.

When it rains in Boston, it's helpful to know about fun things to do indoors, so you can still enjoy the day. Rainy day activities can actually be great option on any day - but sometimes the weather just calls for indoor activities.
