Autumn is a special time of year in the Amana Colonies. As the weather turns just a little cooler and the leaves begin to change the landscape transforms into a painter’s palette of multiple shades of yellow, red, green, and brown.  The farmers are in the fields harvesting and the villages are decorated with mums, straw bales, and corn stocks as September turns into October.  If you arrive at this point in the year you’ll be tempted to take a walk on our nature trail or a stroll down our streets.  There may be no more beautiful time of year in the Amana Colonies than autumn.
