'Fall' In Love With New England's Fall Festivals

I'm not one for cooler weather but I sure do love everything that's seasonal for Fall; hot apple cider, cider doughnuts, pumpkin spice, pumpkin beer, and so on. There are also so many Fall activities that can get you out of the house and enjoying some fresh air during these chilly months like apple-picking, pumpkin-picking, hayrides, and some of the best festivals around. So if you have some free time, grab your sweaters, put on your boots, and head over to these awesome Fall festivals.
