The Biology & Chemistry of Fall (with Jake)

The Biology & Chemistry of Fall (with Jake)

Dr. Riley Kirk reflects on her favourite season in New Hampshire, FALL!

Fall is our favorite season in New Hampshire. We are almost done with preserving the garden, and we get to witness mother nature preparing for a long cold winter.

Animals and plants prepare in different ways, and that is the focus of this episode. Jake is a wildlife biologist and together we discuss:

- why leaves fall off trees

- why leaves are such bright colors in some places

- why hunting season is in the fall

- why birds migrate

- how to harvest lions mane/bears head tooth & medicinal applications.

& more...
