As Michiganders, we’re so lucky to be able to take a drive with a PSL in hand, window down, and watch the seasons entangle during the dance of change through the foliage. Sometimes, though, you just want to do something new. I’m still crying about summer ending (for real, it’s my favorite season) but I’m geeked about this family-inclusive fall list. Okay, I slipped in an adult-only event, too! From U-picks to events to markets, here’s a lineup of fall things to do around Lansing.
