[[Summer]] is the time of year when it is hot, the season starts June 1 and ends August 31. In ''[[Animal Crossing (series)|Animal Crossing]]'', this is when the trees and grass are at their greenest. This is also the ideal time for the grass to regenerate itself in {{CF}}, which introduced a new feature which allows the grass to [[Grass Deterioration|gradually deteriorate]] when walked on.
