You can enjoy local maple syrup any time of the year, but you can only see how this tasty pure Michigan treat is made for these few late winter weekends. So, bundle up and join us for a Journey to the Sugarbush. Learn how to recognize maples without their leaves, find out how to pick just the right tree, see the simple tools and techniques required, and if conditions are just right, watch the sap flow from a tap. A treat for the senses, you will taste, smell, and even hear how maple sugaring is special.

Programs will head out on the hour (11a, noon, 1p, and 2p) each day. Note – if the forecast temperature is not above 25F during the program, you will receive a cancellation notice & refund by 9a.

Locally made maple syrup products are available for walk-up purchase at the Activity Center. For pancake breakfasts, be sure to add Pancakes to Go (February 22-23 & March 1-2) when you register. This ready-to-eat pancake meal is pre-order only and comes with flatware and napkins so you can enjoy inside the Activity Center or on a winter picnic in the park
