Celebrate
the sweetness of the maple sugaring season as this annual family favorite
returns to the Stamford Museum & Nature Center. Visit the little red sugarhouse on
Heckscher Farm and see firsthand how sap is turned into maple syrup. Witness
how trees are tapped and sap is collected, make a maple-themed craft, go on a
scavenger hunt, have your face painted, sing and dance to live music, and more.
On
Saturday, sample delicious dishes from local teen chefs featuring SM&NC
maple syrup in First County Bank’s Teen Chefs Challenge and vote for your
favorite! On Sunday, enjoy the popular pancake brunch. Don’t forget to purchase
a pint of pure maple syrup, made fresh from the trees at the Stamford Museum & Nature Center.
