According to the Massachusetts Vacation website, fall foliage color is peaking in Central MA this weekend. From the site:
Color is peaking this weekend in central Massachusetts. Taking the chairlift to the top of Mt. Wachusett in Princeton will give you a good lay of land. Some other popular routes are rte. 32 from Ware to Barre, rte. 9 through the Brookfields and rtes. 122 & 16 through the Blackstone Valley.
Locally we like following Route 119, and Route 2 takes you through some beautiful areas. Yankee Magazine suggests a foliage drive that encompasses some of Route 2:
You’ll come out onto Route 2. Turn left to head east on Route 2. The first building on your right is home to the Shelburne Falls Coffee Roasters, perfectly placed for an infusion of coffee, cookies, and pastry.
Stretch your legs amid some lovely scenery on the trails at High Ledges, a 586-acre Audubon sanctuary in Shelburne. Point your car west on Route 2, take a right onto Little Mohawk Road, and bear left at the junction onto Patten Road. Continuing on Patten, go left at the next junction and then bear right. The sanctuary entrance is approximately a mile on the left, a twisting, turning half-mile-long dirt road (take it slow!) that empties out onto a small, grassy parking area.

This weekend is supposed to be beautiful! Plan on getting out and enjoying it! And as long as you are out, check out our open house at 16 Walnut Court Leominster – ready to rent 2 family held open from noon to 2 on Sunday October 23.
