Maple Sugaring Through the Years 

Thousands of years before any breakfast diner or career lumberjack, Northeast America’s Indigenous people were tapping trees for sweet sap. Join Irvine’s Environmental Educators, Dr. Clare Walker and Brittany Roger for a multisensory journey through the rich history of maple tapping. The earliest tree-tapping tools, storage, and cooking strategies were ingenious, sustainable cultural staples that we still appreciate today.
