We will celebrate the turning of the seasons with a traditional Irish Ceili Dance led by Kay Cafasso at 2:00pm. ABOUT MAPLE SUGARING AT CNC Maple Syrup is a special and unique product- the Finger Lakes is one of few places on earth where we can harvest and boil tree sap into a delicious food! We've been harvesting maple syrup for many years at CNC and will be tapping our trees in late February this year to gather as much sap as we can, boiling over six hundred gallons of sap into just fifteen gallons of syrup! Our focus for production is in education; we want to help the community understand the benefits and wonders of maple syrup production. This year we are again offering an opportunity to purchase home harvested Cayuga Nature Center syrup and participate in the various elements of production. We sold out last year, so get your orders in early! Syrup will be sold at the following prices: $12 Pint $24 Quart $45 Half Gallon $15 Pint of Maple-Chipotle Opportunities to help tap, haul, and boil will be ongoing. In addition to the events listed below, we will be busy for many of the days and welcome visitors out to the land. Please call us at 273-6260 or email [EMAIL PROTECTED] to find out if the trees are running and how you can get involved. _______________________________________________ RSS, archives, subscription & listserv information for: [email protected] http://lists.mutualaid.org/mailman/listinfo/sustainabletompkins free hosting by http://www.mutualaid.org
