Homeschool Discovery Days - Hidden Colors of Fall – Leaf Chromatograph

November 18, 2026
10:00 am · 11:00am
Have you ever wondered why leaves change color in the fall? Become a nature scientist as we uncover the hidden colors inside autumn leaves! Participants will use leaf chromatography to separate the different pigments found in leaves and discover that there may be more colors hiding inside a leaf than we can see. After our experiment, we’ll head outdoors to explore the trees around us. We’ll investigate fallen leaves, look for differences between tree species, and discover what happens to deciduous trees as they prepare for winter. Registration is required. Please sign up online at this link Homeschool-Discovery-Days-Hidden-Colors-of-Fall-Leaf-Chromatograph sign-up Only students need to register for this program. Please dress for the weather, as part of the program will take place outdoors.
