Fall is the season that extends from late September to late December. It is viewed as a season of decline where leaves fall, insects fall slient, animals prepare for hibernation and many plants die off. As such, Fall is symbolic of middle age, maturity and melancholy. It is a harvest season, that pursues earthy flavors and hearty foods. It is a season of gratitude that seeks humility in the wake of a bountiful harvest.
