In Kate Middleton’s words, fall is about “reflection, growth, and deeper connection”—and she’s embracing these themes in the latest installment of her popular Mother Nature series. In a heartwarming autumn video shared on Saturday, November 15 to her official account, the Princess of Wales gave her followers an idyllic look at the changing foliage as she learned to bake bread outdoors.
For her new video, Middleton teamed up with chef Gill Meller and kids from Farley Junior Academy as part of her work with U.K. charity Go Beyond. As the royal reflected on the season’s period of “refinement,” the video kicked off with a medley of autumnal scenes set in the countryside before showing Middleton, who could be seen wearing a dark green jacket, brown pants, and boots as she walked through a forest. Styling her long brown hair in side-parted curls, Middleton then rolled up her sleeves as she learned to bake bread on an open fire in Windsor Great Park.

Chatting with a group of kids sitting around the bonfire, Kate enjoyed her freshly-made bread as she reflected, “With the turning of the seasons, Mother Nature teaches us there is beauty to be found in change, in permanence and in letting go. These are the natural cycles of life, while the blossoms fall and the colours fade, the roots grow deeper, stronger.”
“Autumn – a season of reflection, growth and deeper connection. Embrace the beauty found in change, as we prepare for winter’s rest,” she captioned the video, signing it off as “C.”
