Sap to Syrup

Discover the surprising variety of trees that can be tapped!
Those acquainted with maple syruping may be surprised to know that there's more to syruping than maples! Join Tenafly Nature Center educators to explore how sap becomes syrup and which local trees can be tapped for their own unique flavors. Families will head outdoors to identify tree species, learn how sap flows, and practice using real tapping tools. We’ll look at maple as our familiar starting point and then explore several other trees that can be tapped, comparing how their sap differs in taste, sweetness, and seasonal flow patterns.
