About the event
Sugarbush Tours
It’s that time of year when the sap begins to rise. And humans aren’t the only ones drawn to the sweetness of maple trees. The Yellow-bellied Sapsucker depends on sapwells—neat rows of shallow holes drilled into tree bark—where it laps up sugary sap along with insects caught in the sticky flow. Since 1970, more than 3 billion birds have been lost in North America. Fortunately, maple sugarbushes like those at Aullwood provide critical nesting habitat for a wide variety of songbirds. Maple syrup season is the perfect time to join us for a Sugarbush Tour. Learn how trees make their own food, see how sap is transformed into syrup, and enjoy a taste of real maple syrup. You’ll also discover our Bird-Friendly Sugarbush Management Program, which helps landowners manage their sugarbushes in ways that support woodland birds—while giving them the opportunity to market certified Bird-Friendly maple syrup.
