March 14 – Maple Sugaring Day
- Join us on March 14th for Maple Sugaring Day at Heritage Hill. Late winter and early spring in historic Green Bay was a time for tapping maples and boiling sap. Rooted in Indigenous tradition and continued by European settlers, the process included tapping trees, gathering sap, shaping birchbark containers and carefully boiling the liquid into syrup and sugar. Come visit La Baye to watch interpreters replicate these historic processes! Watch interpreters tap trees, gather sap, build birchbark containers and boil syrup down into sugar using historic methods.
