SUMMARY:The Science of Fall Leaf Color
DESCRIPTION:*This program was rescheduled from September 27 due to rain.* \n\n\n\nThe Arboretum becomes a riot of color in the fall with leaves turning deep red\, fiery orange\, and bright yellow. Have you ever wondered why this happens every autumn? Outdoor Educator Ana Maria Caballero will take us through the science of fall leaf color\, including an exploration of pigments and abscission\, a hands-on experiment to reveal the array of pigments present in every leaf\, and a walk in the landscape to take a closer look at leaves in all phases of color change. \n\n\n\nAccessibility: This program includes a short walk over pavement\, grass\, and gravel. The science experiment will use either acetone or rubbing alcohol so participants will be in close proximity to these substances. \n\n\n\nAudience: This program is geared towards adults \n\n\n\nInclement weather policy: Participants will be notified via email at least one day in advance if a program needs to be cancelled due to inclement weather\, and will be notified by phone if a program must be cancelled with less one day’s notice. Click here to view our full inclement weather policy. If you have questions about the status of a program\, please email publicprograms@arnarb.harvard.edu (inbox monitored on weekdays) or call the Visitor Center desk between 10:00am and 4:00pm at (617) 384-5209.
