Fun Fall Date Ideas
Don’t let a new chill in the air dampen your date! Fall is the best time for several date activities.
Cooler temperatures can inspire some great date ideas. So grab your sweetie, a cup of hot chocolate, and consider these activities.
A Trip to the Pumpkin Farm
- No, you don’t have to be a kid to enjoy a pumpkin farm. In fact, the nostalgia involved in choosing a pumpkin can help bond you both together as you recall memories of field trips from the past.
Hayride
- Many area farms and fresh produce stands offer hayrides in the cooler months. Snuggle up with your date as you take in nature.
Haunted House
- There’s nothing that sparks romance like holding on to your date as you wander through the spooky halls. Who ever thought fear could inspire romance?
A Drive in the Country
- We are lucky enough to live in an area that has a change of seasons that allows us to take in the splendour of the red, gold, and russet leaves. Map out a day trip to the nearest town where you’ll spot the changing trees. The beauty of nature will inspire you to get cozy and romantic.
Harvest Fests and Craft Fairs
- Autumn often brings festivals featuring homemade goods, fresh produce, and the best in craft projects. Fairs lend to a fun and relaxed atmosphere – the perfect surroundings to get to know someone better.
Horseback Riding
- If you’re both into a change of venue, maybe a horseback ride through the country will give you a lift. Many stables and farms have horseback riding lessons, so even if you’re not a pro you both can enjoy a day out in the country.
Visit an Apple Orchard
- Take a drive to the nearest apple orchard and pick out some apples to make a pie with. Baking together on a date is a great way to spend time and get to know each other.
Flea Markets
- Many antique, toy, and book dealers like to get rid of their inventory before the winter months. Head out to a flea market – get there early – and search for a unique treasure. Finding out what you both are passionate about is a great way to find out if you’re compatible as well.
Farmer’s Markets
- There’s much more than just veggies at farmer’s markets these days. Pick up some fruit, flowers, or even books. Better yet, take a camera and scrapbook the picturesque scenes of still life.
Nature Hike
- Sometimes the best dates are the simplest. Put your hiking boots or best sports shoes on and take a hike through a leaf-filled trail. Work up your appetite for a nice lunch when you’re finished.
Wine Tasting and Vineyards
- There’s something very romantic about the time tested traditional of making wine. Visit a winery or better yet, a local vineyard and learn about the process. Then buy a bottle or two for dinner later.
