Touring local maple syrup bushes and establishments. Most meetings will be outside (Saturday afternoons) and within a short time period (February and March) weather permitting and hopefully cooperating. Participants will hopefully have a chance to try tapping their own tree.
Achievement will consist of judged maple syrup made by each participant and/or a pancake breakfast for participants’ family. Achievement will be held at Brigden Fairgrounds.
Maple Syrup: General
You’ve probably had maple syrup on your pancakes and waffles, but what do you really know about how it’s made? This project is a great introduction to the world of our favourite sap!
