trees make food during the summer from the sunlight they trap through the leaves and turn it into food, this is called photosynthesis but due to lack of sunlight during the winter, the trees store just the right amount of food to maintain the branches and the trunk but not the leaves so to save on food supply, the trees loose their leaves
