Maple sugaring excitement begins by hearing the "drip, drip, drip" as the first droplets of sap go into your bucket. Bring your whole family to learn all about the history of maple sugaring. Along the way you will find out how to identify sugar maple trees in winter, take turns drilling a hole and tapping a spile, then your family will have a special bucket that can be checked throughout the season. Once a bucket is purchased, you will be contacted to schedule your tour. Be sure to fill out the questions at the end of the registration process so we can best assist you with your tour time. There is a limit of one bucket per family. Tours will take place January 24th-31st between the hours of 9:00 a.m. & 3:00 p.m.Each bucket will come with a 16 oz jar of locally made maple syrup and four pieces of maple candy.Please only register ONE member of your group for the program, each group will receive one bucket.
