As our day at the sugar bush continued we clambered on hay bales, some of us jumping from bale to bale like Indiana Jones, and then made our way into the steamy sugar house where we learned how maple syrup is made. We got to look through a refractometer to see the sugar content of the sap we had collected. At the end of the day we all got the chance to taste-test the thick gooey goodness of local maple syrup drizzled over homemade cornbread. Yummmmmm!
