Updates for December 2024
December - The new sapping season starts in late winter; typically from mid-March to mid-April in most maple-syrup producing areas, when temperatures are below freezing at night and above freezing during the day. Tours
usually begin in early Spring! That's a great time to visit a maple sugar orchard or sugarworks and see a sugaring demonstration; watch them make maple syrup!
Where are Maple Syrup farms/orchards/sugarworks, etc.? Well, they're not in Hawaii or Florida, for sure. They are concentrated in the northeast and upper midwest in the US and the eastern half of Canada, even though maple trees do grow in the northwest.
That's why the areas below (in states outside of the Northeast and Midwest) have no listings! Although, there is research to develop trees that can produce
sap/syrup in warmed climates.

- Minnewaska State Park Preserve - Sugaring Off
Minnewaska State Park Preserve, 5281 Route 44-55, Kerhonkson, NY 12446. Phone: (845) 255-0752. Open: Saturday, April 6, 2024 from 11 AM
to 4 PM. 18th Century Style at the Senate House State Historic Site. Collecting maple sap and boiling it down to sugar has been a long-standing
tradition in North America. Indigenous Peoples in the northeast first collected the sap, boiled it into sugar, and used it in their cooking.
When European colonists arrived, they learned how to process the sap from Indigenous Peoples. It was used as a sweetener, in place of expensive
cane sugar, in a variety of foods including oatmeal, sausage, and baked goods. Join the staff of Senate House State Historic Site to celebrate
the maple season for its annual Sugaring Off event. Activities include boiling maple sap into syrup, maple crafts, meat smoking, and hearthside
cooking. Local militia units will also be on-site demonstrating camp-life during the 1700s. Mark Rust will be providing musical entertainment,
including a variety of musical instruments such as the banjo, violin, guitar, and spoons. This is a free, family-friendly event! Nick Martin,
Park Preserve Educator, will join Senate House staff in Kingston for this program and will be making maple candy for participants to enjoy. This
is a walk-in program; no registration is necessary. For more information, contact the Senate House State Historic Site directly at 845-338-2786.
