Time: 11 AM – 4 PM
Details:
Come hike into the maple trees with us and we’ll teach you all about running a small family maple syrup operation. This class will cover tapping trees, sap collection, boiling, and canning finished syrup.
Instructor, Rich Haucke, has been spending his early spring days in this maple sugar bush since the 70s and you could say this is his happy place. He loves to stoke the boiler in the quiet of the woods and is excited to share his knowledge with visitors. His son and daughter-in-law, Rufus and Joy help him teach this class, sprinkling in fascinating history and sugar science.
