 Maple
Sugaring
There are over 100 maple sugar houses that
welcome visitors during sugaring time from late February through early April
when the sap is gathered from the maple trees and boiled down into pure
maple syrup.
This New England "rite of spring" should not be
missed. For information on sugaring conditions during the season, the
Massachusetts Maple Phone 413-628-3912 will give you daily updates on the
best time to view. For a free sugar house directory write or contact the Massachusetts Maple Producers
Association, Watson-Spruce Corner Road, Ashfield, MA 01330,
413-628-3912. |
