Maple Sugar Party

 
Event Description - Maple Sugar Party

Sold out!! 
Join your fellow alums and families for the start of the maple sugaring season this year. Meet by 11 am (please be prompt!) to have a maple sugaring tour before our meal to see and learn about the transformation of sap to syrup.  At noon, enjoy a brunch of pancakes with maple syrup produced on-site, home-made sausage, roasted potatoes, orange juice, fruit, coffee, tea, or milk.

Dress warmly and wear warm waterproof boots because the walk is entirely outdoors. Children under 3 are free and should be in a backpack. Bring your family, and children are welcome. Parking is free and plentiful.

Agenda:

11:00 Walking tour of a working maple sugar farm, seeing the chain from tapping maple trees to boiling the sap down to syrup and sugar

12:00 Sap-to-Syrup Farmer's Breakfast

After the tour, you can enjoy the sanctuary, including new baby animals, which is included with your ticket.

Club members - $13 for each adult (12 and older), $10 for each child 3-12
