There’s more to fall in Maine

Fall is officially here, and with it comes colder weather, football games and falling leaves. Fall foliage in New England draws people from across the country to enjoy the vibrant colors of the changing leaves. While the leaves don’t reach their peak until the beginning of October, if you are preparing a weekend trip you should start making plans now.

Foliage trips are a big draw for areas like the White Mountains in New Hampshire, so if you are set on going away for a weekend, you should make hotel reservations soon to ensure their availability. However there are plenty of areas for leaf peeping right here in Maine, and because of our state’s diversified climates you can take several trips at different times. Northern areas of the state such as Caribou typically have their peak leaf season at the end of September, while for southern areas such as Freeport peak season is usually mid to late October. Maine credit unions want you to make the most of your time this Fall, taking advantage of conveniences like Shared Branching and the SURF surcharge-free ATM network allow you to take your credit union with you, wherever your leaf peeping trips take you.
