Description

The Festival of the Sugar Maples is an annual event that teaches historical and current methods of sap collection and maple syrup making. Each year maple trees are carefully selected and tapped by Conservation District staff for this event that draws over 1,500 visitors. This program is a unique opportunity for the public to assist in the tree tapping process. Staff will provide a short lesson on tree selection, how to correctly place a tap in a tree, and the proper equipment used to complete the process. Under staff supervision, participants will work together to tap some of the trees for the public special event being held March 6-8, 2021 and March 13-15, 2021. Dress for the weather.
