Channel the flannel. ๐ We have been loving the fall foliage around Hendersonville!
Fall Foliage on the Blue Ridge Parkway!
Fasten your seatbelts, Fall Foliage is showing off on the Blue Ridge Parkway! ๐ ๐
A few reminders for your drive:
๐Make sure you drive safely. It is always best to swap drivers so you can keep your eyes on the road the entire time!
๐Do not park in the roadway!
๐ There are no gas stations and facilities are limited on the Blue Ridge Parkway so be sure that you come prepared!
๐ Fall Foliage is only around for a short time so if you want to see it this year, be sure to head to Hendersonville soon!
Each year, our friends at Stepp's Hillcrest Orchard put their creative talents to work with a spectacular 5-acre corn maze that pays homage to the beauty of the Fall season. This year, we believe it looks absolutely "appley" delightful! ๐๐
