Saturday, February 8, 10am-1pm, Stratford Ecological Center, 3083 Liberty Rd., Delaware, Ohio

Discover the wonder and time-honored tradition of transforming sap into pure maple syrup as you explore Stratford’s forest, witness sap collection, and experience the magic of the Sugar Shack. During your one-hour, hands-on tour, you’ll hike through Stratford’s beautiful forest, learn how to identify sugar maples and tap a tree yourself! When you arrive at the Sugar Shack, you’ll taste a sample of freshly collected sap, watch the sugar cookers work their magic and observe the evaporation process up close, then taste a sample of that sweet liquid gold. Local maple syrup will be available for purchase afterwards. Tours last approximately one hour, departing every half hour, and require participants to walk about 3/4 to 1 mile on even terrain. The final tour departs at noon.

This event is open to all ages; the cost is $10.00.
