October 2025 in Nebraska, and our maple. oak, ash, linden, and cottonwood trees are ditching their load of leaves. Leaves in bronze, ruby, gold and scarlet drift from the heights into fluffy mounds like quilts covering the earth during winter’s blasts of snow and deep freeze. 

In October we welcome family and friends to join us in our season to celebrate football and volleyball and Thanksgiving, the Christmas Holidays – the gifting season. 

We count on our Makers and Bakers and Designers and Creators at the GROW Nebraska’s Buy Nebraska Store in Kearney, Nebraska to make it easy.
