Ambler Farm’s Maple Syrup Tap-a-Tree Program

Learn the science and history of maple sugaring by being a hands-on part of the process. There will be two training sessions offered; only ONE session is required for training. On that day you will choose a tree and hang your bucket that will collect sap. We will send regular updates on the running of the sap so you can come to Ambler Farm to collect sap from your tree. We will boil down the sap in our sugar shack and send each family home with their very own bottle of Ambler Farm maple syrup.

Please join us for one training session on Feb. 1, either at 10 a.m. OR 1 p.m..

The season runs from early February to mid-March. Maple syrup production is winter farming and, therefore, weather dependent. A typical season is five weeks long. If you are traveling during February or March, we will collect sap for you.

Enrollment limited to 110 families. This program sold out quickly in previous years, so please do not wait to sign up! The number of trees at the Farm is limited, so we are unable to accommodate late requests or wait lists.

Cost:  $60 per member family, $65 per non-member family

Registration opens to members on Jan. 2, non-members on Jan. 17, space permitting.
