The effect fall foliage has on my brain needs to be studied. 🍁🍂😂

The colors in Sheboygan are just starting to peek through, and I’d say in a week or two, the trails are going to be glowing with color!

I’m already looking forward to all the crisp fall walks, colorful trees and those perfect Wisconsin fall days. 🍂

If you’re looking for things to add to your fall bucket list, here are a few of my favorites in Sheboygan! 🍎🎃🍂

🥾 Get outside at Maywood - Ellwood H. May Environmental Park

With more than 135 acres to explore, fall is a beautiful time to hike, bike, watch for wildlife and enjoy the changing leaves.

🎃 Pick out a pumpkin at Bulitz Pumpkin Farm

Pick out pumpkins, gourds and other fall decorations, then stick around for horse-drawn wagon rides, pony rides and the petting zoo.

🍂 Climb a tower for the fall views

Broughton Sheboygan Marsh Park & Tower and Parnell Tower are two great spots to see the fall colors from above. If you’re up for a hike, Parnell is especially beautiful on a crisp fall day.

🌽 Get lost at Flora Fields

Explore a 9-acre corn maze, walk through the sunflower fields, check out the pumpkin patch, play games, listen to live music and find plenty of cute fall photo spots.

👻 Visit Bookworm Gardens after dark

For a spooky fall night, check out Boos & Brews or Happily Haunted. The gardens are transformed with Halloween decorations, twinkling lights and plenty of fun activities.

🌻 Wander through a corn maze & sunflower field

Get lost in the corn maze, wander through the sunflower fields, pick your own bouquet and take a tractor-drawn wagon ride at Farm Wisconsin Discovery Center

🍎 Spend an afternoon at an apple orchard

M&T's Gibbsville Orchard, Whispering Orchards & Cafe, and Pigeon River Apple Orchard are all great places to get your fill of apples, c***r, caramel apples, fall treats and time outside.

🎨 Take a walk through a woodland sculpture garden

The James A. Tellen Woodland Sculpture Garden is one of the more unique places to explore. Wander through the woods and discover more than 30 sculptures tucked into the natural landscape.

Fall goes by way too quickly, so I’m all for finding as many excuses as possible to get outside and enjoy it while it’s here. 🍂

Save this post for your fall bucket list and let me know what you’d add!

I had lunch at Bourbon Street Pub & Grill in Sheboygan, and if you’re craving some New Orleans-inspired flavor, this is a spot to check out! ⚜️🍴🎭

We went with the Catfish Po’ Boy and the Rajun Cajun Pasta, and both brought plenty of that bold Cajun-style flavor to the table. Their menu has a great mix of New Orleans favorites like po’ boys, jambalaya, gumbo and Cajun dishes, along with classic burgers, sandwiches and pub favorites.
It’s a casual spot to grab lunch and try something with a little Southern flair.

Make an afternoon out of sunflower season! If you’ve been waiting all summer for those golden fields to bloom, this is your sign to grab your camera and go for a little sunflower adventure! 🌻

There are a few spots around the Sheboygan area to keep on your radar:

Farm Wisconsin Discovery Center – Their sunflower field is blooming now, and it’s more than just a place to snap a few pictures. You can walk through the field, take photos, cut your own flowers to bring home, and even hop on a wagon ride through the blooms on Fridays and Saturdays. The field has a fun patriotic design this year, too!

Blueberry Lane, south of Plymouth – A local sunflower field is blooming along Blueberry Lane between Sumac Road and Winooski Road. This one is a simple, free stop for taking a walk, enjoying the flowers and grabbing a few blooms. Just be extra careful along the road, as parking is limited and traffic does pass through the area.

Flora Fields in Kohler – Keep this one on your list for later in the season! Their sunflowers will be blooming soon, making it another beautiful spot for a late-summer outing.

Pick a field, grab a coffee or treat for the drive and make an afternoon of it. 🌻☀️

Let me know in the comments if there are more sunflower spots I should know about 👇🏼
