Fall is a great time to explore the fascinating fungi growing in Minnesota’s woods! Slow down, look closely, and see what you can discover.

Fungi play an important role in healthy ecosystems by breaking down dead leaves and wood, recycling nutrients back into the soil. 🌱

One of the mushrooms in this post is called the Old Man of the Woods. Can you guess which one??👀🍄

Looking for more fall discoveries? Check out Happy Dancing Turtle’s Fall Bingo Scavenger Hunt and see how many nature treasures you can find: https://www.happydancingturtle.org/bingo-scavenger-hunt

🍂 Leave the leaves. Help the bees. 🐝
Pollinators may not be the first thing on your mind in October, but fall is an important time to protect the habitat they need to survive.

From leaving leaves and standing perennials to planting a bee lawn or creating a pollinator pocket garden, small changes in your yard can make a big difference for bees and other beneficial insects. Ready to make your yard a little more pollinator-friendly? Start where you are—and maybe start by not cleaning up. 😉

Garlic is easy and rewarding to plant in Minnesota. Plant individual cloves in the fall, cover them with mulch, and let them rest through winter.

By summer, you’ll be harvesting your own homegrown garlic! 🌱🧄

See our 7 steps to planting garlic for a simple guide to getting started.
