EDITOR'S NOTE
Experience Tuscany with all your senses
Autumn in Tuscany is a season which provides new emotions and experiences that will truly satisfy all of the five senses. The colors of autumn will tease you into trying to capture each and every nuance of change in the landscape with your camera while you walk the trails and your foot steps crunch over the recently fallen leaves.
The crops from the fields and flavors from the forest are central on the Tuscan table this month with their tantalizing scents. There are many recipes found only during this season which will delight your palate, take for example the many based on chestnuts.
How about participating in the harvest? This is one of our 5 suggestions for fall in Tuscany. Get involved and take part in nature's abundance, hands-on along with the locals. Or head to a market or sagra (a food festival) to taste the fine results of the harvest: check out the calendar of events for October. Ever consider traveling in Tuscany on an authentic steam engine train in the search for chestnuts and truffles? Another possibility for you to consider this fall!
