Visitors are encouraged to visit the various discovery stations hosted by Tyler educators to learn how sap is turned into maple syrup, and then take a turn tapping a tree. Breakfast cravings are satisfied in the historic Barn with Tyler’s mouthwatering all-you-can-eat pancake and sausage breakfast. Hot coffee, hot cocoa and other beverages accompany this tasty winter feast.

“Participants get a rare, hands-on experience by witnessing how sap from a tree evolves into the maple syrup occupying their pantry and breakfast tables,” said Sally Rogers. “It’s quite a fascinating process, and guests will ‘flip’ for the all-you-can-eat pancake and sausage breakfast!”

No preregistration is required for this event. Adults are $12, children (ages 3-12) $8, and children under age three are free. All proceeds benefit Tyler Arboretum. Because this is a fundraiser, no free passes are allowed for this event. The snow date for this event is March 7.
