Maple Sugaring at The Watershed Institute

Try something new this winter and try out maple sugaring! Maple sugaring season is underway at The Watershed Institute. Discover the history, folklore, and science of maple sugaring. During this hour-long, outdoor program, you visit maple trees, find out how they are tapped using drills and spiles, and sample the sweet maple sugar. Head to Pennington from your furnished rental in New Jersey to earn about the evaporation process and how sticky sap transforms into sweet maple syrup. Be sure to dress warm, wear boots and social distancing is required.
