Spring is the time of year when maple sap is collected to be boiled down into syrup.

UPDATE: This event was postponed by organizers due to weather.

BRAINERD — An outdoor maple syrup experience and farm tour is planned for Saturday, March 25, at Clayhill Farms in Brainerd.

The event organized by the Northland Arboretum includes two time slots: 9 a.m. or 1 p.m. Those who sign up for the tour will trek the forest and tap a maple tree, learn how sap is boiled down and taste test syrup from the farm with pancakes.

Those interested can register at northlandarb.org/classes-events. For more information, call 218-829-8770 or email info@northlandarb.org.
