We ask that only families with children age 7 & under attend this program. If you are a family with older children or adults interested in maple tree tapping you are invited to attend our all ages event instead.
This special tree tapping program will introduce younger learners to the sweet world of maple syrup in a fun way. Hands on activities will help young learners understand the tapping & refining process used to create our own special maple syrup.Space in this program is limited so pre-registration is required by Wednesday, March 1st.
