When spring is so near that we can feel it, the Maple tree also known as the Sugar Maple tree, wakes up from its deep sleep causing its sap to rise. The First Native "Amerindians" discovered that they could collect the sap, boil it over a roaring fire thus resulting in a golden, onctuous, delicious and oh! so good syrup, which they called maple syrup.
What a sweet piece of heritage they left us!
