Walk into Lincoln Memorial Gardens’ sugar bush as the garden taps its maples during Maple Syrup Time. Take part in one of multiple demonstrations taking place each Saturday and Sunday. Collect the sap as it flows from the trees and cook it down into pure maple syrup. Kids can help turn the brace and bit as tap holes are drilled. All participants get to taste the syrup at the end of the process.
