Five Ways to Help You Enjoy This Cleveland Fall to the Fullest 
​

There are so many enjoyable ways to make the most of this season, but it takes intentionality to make this fall one to remember. Here are five great ideas to kickstart your fall fun: 

• If you enjoy fresh apples and baked apple treats, go apple picking and enjoy some scrumptious Ohio fruit. This is a great activity to do with kids or with friends, and the abundance of delicious fruit you'll go home with at the end of the day.  What is more festive then a fragrant apple pie made with fresh Northeast Ohio apples? Not much, we'll tell you that. Celebrate fall with incredible apples and the enjoyment of picking them yourself - it's an experience like no other. 
  

• Have a fall picnic in a Cleveland park. Now, this is something you want to do before it gets too chilly, of course, but a casual picnic in a beautiful Northeast Ohio park is a great opportunity to enjoy the day with friends and family. Dress warmly and either pack your favorite fall foods or get your favorite takeout and head out to your favorite spot. 
  

• Harvest season in Ohio is iconic, so don't miss out on enjoying a corn maze. This is such a playful and fun activity, and it is a great way to make a ton of memories and enjoy the fall ambiance. Your loved ones deserve to have quality time with you this fall, and this is another great way to enjoy the autumn.
  

• Decorate your house for fall. Many individuals go all out with Christmas decorations, but fall is a great time to add festive touches to your home. Gorgeous reds, vibrant ambers, and earthy brown tones can make your home cozy and help you embrace the outdoor colors of fall indoors. Add some pumpkins and gourds - maybe even a cornucopia - and you are set for the seasons. Another thing to consider is that Thanksgiving is next month! Crazy, right? Focusing on the things we have to be thankful for is so important, especially this time of year. Here is a great bonding activity for the whole household that results in a wonderful decorative piece: get a decorative chalkboard, gather the family, and fill it in with things your family is thankful for. 
  

• Try a new fall recipe, one that you haven't tried out before. While you have your annual favorites, it is great to try out new things. You might even find your new favorite fall food! And even if you don't, you'll expand your horizons, which is always a plus. Experiment with a fall coffee drink, an entree, or a munchy snack - you can brighten up your meals with a dash of seasonal spice. 
  

Bonus: Get your camera out and take some fall photos!  There are many places in our country that don't get to experience fall the way we do. Embrace the beauty that we have here in Northeast Ohio and capture our beautiful colors with your camera so that you can enjoy them all year long.
