Fall is around the corner and soon the leaves  will be changing and we will be digging the
sweaters out of our closets. Fall is the perfect time to get out and enjoy all the events that Putnam County offers -- from apple picking and pumpkin patches, to  antique hunting, beautiful drives to watch the fall foliage and a visit to the local farmer's market or  historic sites. Remember to get active and take part in all the cultural activities Putnam County has to offer.
