Sugar on Snow!


Event Title: Sugar on Snow!
Date/Time: Sat, Mar 3rd 2:00pm - 3:00pm
Location: DeGraaf Nature Center

Sugar on Snow! It's an 1800s pioneer treat. You take maple syrup (fresh from the evaporator) and continue to cook it until, when you pour it over snow, it makes a toffee-like ribbon that is scooped up with fingers or sticks and eaten. This program will begin with a short lesson about maple sugaring - how it's made and some history. Then we will lay out trays of crushed ice to make this treat for everyone. Fee: $3.00 per person or Free for Friends of DeGraaf. Please register.
