Slopeside Syrup Visit
On Friday, March 8, Doug Brown from Slopeside Syrup visited our class. He showed us pictures of his sugar house, tubing, and maple syrup. Mr. Brown brought in some of his equipment and explained how he uses it. We all went outside and learned how to identify a maple tree by the leaves and branches. We particularly enjoyed helping to tap four trees in the woods behind our school. Our class will be collecting sap and Mr. Brown will boil it down into maple syrup for us.
Thank you Mr. Brown for a great visit. We learned so much!
