Tap into the sights, sounds, and tastes of the maple season! Our Maple Festival is an outdoor adventure with several unique areas of the Museum to explore! In each, you may find maple history, live music, vendors, food, bonfires, hands-on activities, storytelling…its outdoor fun for the whole family! Join us for a delightful experience at our Nature Center and Historic Village, where you can explore the maple sugaring process, enjoy seasonal storytelling, participate in hands-on activities like tree-tapping and candle making, savor delicious maple-themed foods, and shop from a variety of local vendors while listening to live music under the festival tent.
Join us for our 47th annual Maple Sugaring Weekends during the last two weekends in March. Enjoy a locally-sourced pancake breakfast before heading outside for tapping and boiling demonstrations on the trail.
