Real maple syrup doesn’t come from a factory. It comes from trees and on Saturday, February 12, you can see how in the “Maple Sugaring” program at the Essex County Environmental Center. You’ll walk out it the woods to find sugar maple trees, tap one to collect some sap and then make maple syrup. There will be hot chocolate and maple sugar snacks afterwards. The cost is $5 for New Jersey Audubon Society members and $7 for non-members. The program starts at 10:30 a.m. and advance registration is required. For information, call 973-226-6082.
