Take a 90-minute tour of our Meesing sugarbush focusing on the history of maple syrup from the Native Americans to the early settlers in this region. Learn how to 'tap' a maple tree to obtain sap, and watch as we demonstrate how to cook the sap until it is sweet maple syrup. You'll complete the tour at our pancake station where the finished product is served over freshly made pancakes. Please dress appropriately for the weather, including shoes appropriate for trail walking! Pre-registration is required, call 570-629-3061. Participants may choose a time from 10am to 2pm for their 90-minute tour. Cost: $6/adults, $4/children under 12, payable day of program. Tree sponsors attend free of charge. Please call us or refer to our website, mcconservation.org for written directions to Meesing. The address does NOT work in GPS systems.
