Living here in Michigan, we look forward to the fall if only for the jewel‑like displays of autumn foliage. Although we’ve known for a while how trees and shrubs change color, we’ve not been as certain as to the “Why” of it.
Learn about the chemical and biological processes that go into our annual fall fashion show during Autumn Jewels: The Science Behind the Scenery at 6 p.m. Monday, Sept. 12. Get a glimpse of the beauties of our own native species as they go through their annual transformation.
