The 3rd annual Bigleaf Maple Syrup Festival will take place at the University of Washington Pack Forest in Eatonville, WA on May 4th.Register at https://bigleafmaple.eventbrite.com/
Maple syrup is taking off in the northwest! Sap collected from our native bigleaf maple trees produces a delicious syrup with a unique flavor. It’s excellent for baking, cooking, cocktails, and, of course, pancakes! Moreover, maple sugaring adds value to forests and supports small forest owner’s management and conservation of forestland in Washington State.
