When & Where to Visit

Sign up for Weekly Foliage Reports!

Maine's Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry releases weekly foliage reports each year during foliage season (mid-September through mid-October). Forest Rangers assess the amount of color change and leaf drop when they are on assignment in the field. These reports represent the official word on foliage conditions in the state of Maine and are provided to the public and media.
