Cabin fever setting in? Looking for a sweet pick-me-up? This March, Maine Coast Heritage Trust (MCHT) invites all ages to learn about making maple syrup from scratch (sap) at Aldermere Farm, 70 Russell Ave, in Rockport. The maple syrup that they help produce will be donated to local food pantries. Individuals and small groups may register for a Thursday afternoon session on Thursday, March 10 or Thursday, March 17, from 3 - 4:30 p.m., to learn about the process: identifying sugar maples, tapping trees, collecting sap, and running the evaporator.
