Family Maple Syruping Workshop

Try your hand at maple sugaring at Appleton Farms! Join us for a fun, hands-on workshop that kids and adults will love.

Families try their hand at maple sugaring at Appleton Farms! Join us for a fun, hands-on workshop that kids and adults will love. After exploring our maple sugaring tools, use our hand drill to practice tapping a tree! We’ll go through the whole process from maple sugar tree ID to boiling sap, and we’ll be sure to play along the way. Our knowledgable educator will answer your questions so you can be a sugar maker at home. We’ll finish up with a story– and, of course, a maple syrup sample!

This is two-hour educational family program offered for eight weekends starting in February.

We will follow all Covid-19 health safety protocols and best practices including social distancing and frequent hand washing or sanitizing. Masks are required for all indoors regardless of vaccination status. Our program will be held outdoors with occasional indoor breaks.
