GWLT staff were out at Nick's Woods today, setting up a small sugaring operation with some middle school students from the Bancroft School. Taps are set up in the big maple grove, and will be checked by staff and volunteers over the next few weeks. Periodical boils will take place as people are available.
If you're interested in being a part of it, contact anne@gwlt.org
This may be the last sugaring for some time, as the USDA will be treating maples up at this end of the city with insecticide to prevent infestation by the Asian Longhorn Beetles, thus making the sap unfit for human consumption. Enjoy it whist you can!
