Description

Eastman Nature Center is operated by Three Rivers Parks – a collection of park locations that traditionally offer an abundance of inexpensive, family-friendly opportunities to learn about maple syrup. Eastman usually overflows with maple syruping programs including workshops on how to make your own, naturalist programs for families and full moon programs at night.

At Eastman’s Maple Syrup Festival you’ll visit the park’s sugarbush, collect sap, watch it cook and enjoy syrup sundaes. Cost is $6 per person, registration required.
