Audubon Ctr. MapleFest

Sharon Audubon Center hosts MapleFest along with Maple Bake Sale
Sharon Audubon Center, located at 325 Cornwall Bridge Road (Route 4) in Sharon, CT, will once again be holding its annual MapleFest and Maple Bake Sale on Sunday, March 12 between 12pm and 4 pm.  On-going guided 45-minute to 1 hour tours will lead visitors through the Center’s sugaring operation, including a working sugarhouse and a re-creation of Native American and early colonial sugaring methods.  Participants can watch as pure sugar maple sap is collected from the trees and turned into delicious maple syrup.  Admission for the event is $10.00 adults and $5.00 children (2 and under free.) Wear warm clothes and boots, as the entire tour is outdoors and trails are often muddy or snow covered. Tours go out approximately every 15-20 minutes.
Fresh, homemade maple baked goods, as well as coffee and water, will also be available for purchase during the day as part of the Maple Bake Sale. Each treat will be made with the Center’s very own maple syrup!  Depending on production, fresh syrup will be available for purchase while supplies last.
