Join Hancock Park District for ‘Maple Sugarin'
FINDLAY- Spring is almost here and the temperatures are starting to fluctuate. This means that conditions are right for collecting maple tree sap. Step back in time to see the process the pioneers and Native Americans used to collect sap, transport it to the sugar bush, and boil it down to produce sweet maple syrup.
Litzenberg Memorial Woods, March 11, 9:00 a.m.-noon
All ages are welcome.
Free; registration is not required.
Other stops of interest include sap science and touring the McKinnis House. In the Activity Barn you can make a beaded key chain that will help you remember the story of how we get maple syrup. Stay there for a hot drink and check out maple goodies being sold by Fruth’s Sugarhouse.
Litzenberg Memorial Woods is located at 6100 US RT 224, west of Findlay. For more information about other upcoming park programs and events, visit the “Programs & Activities Calendar” on our website, www.HancockParks.com or call the park office at 419-425-7275.
