Hands-On Public Maple Education Classes (in person)

Friday, Saturday and Sunday Bowdoin Parks staff will provide hands-on learning opportunities for all ages about the art and history of making maple syrup. Participants will get to watch the different steps of the maple syrup making process, from the tapping of trees at the park, to sap collection, and boiling it down to make syrup. Native American methods for creating maple sugar will also be explored.

Sessions will be offered at 10am, 12:30pm, and 3pm all three days. Classes are $5 per person and pre-registration is required. Sessions are limited to 20 participants. Registration opens March 2nd at DutchessNY.gov/Parks.
