On Friday, June 12, 2026, 9am–5pm, we will host a FREE workshop for maple producers and enthusiasts who are interested in learning about sustainable tapping practices. The session will cover topics such as tree health, sugar dynamics in trees, taphole formation, tree injury response, and wood growth. Our staff will showcase long-term tree health research being conducted at PMRC as well as provide hands-on tapping activities for participants. Whether you are new to maple sugaring or have been making maple products for decades, all are welcome to attend. The workshop is limited to 30 people and registration closes April 1, 2026.
