The 26th Annual Maple Boil Down

  • Somerville Community Growing Center 22 Vinal Avenue Somerville, MA, 02143 United States (map)

All are invited! Join in the fun.

As part of this project, a team of volunteers taps a swath of maple trees on the Tufts campus beginning in late January, collecting dozens of gallons of sap over a number of weeks.

At the Maple Boil Down, coordinated by the Somerville Community Growing Center, we'll boil it all down into real, true 100% hyper-local maple syrup.

At this event, youth and adults alike will have a chance to learn about tree anatomy and physiology and experience the process of making fresh maple syrup first-hand.
