Just because it is cold out doesn’t mean the work stops! Join us in the woods for the winter’s work. Make a lumberjack’s breakfast. Learn about the tools, jobs, and day to day tasks in the lumber camp.
Celebrate the charm of maple syrup season, as Pinecrest Village buzzes with the energy of early spring. Discover the old-fashioned skills needed to take this sweet treat all the way from tree to table.
Our costumed educators will “spile” the beans on maple’s magic, and teach you the backwoods skills necessary for adventures in the sugarbush. Join in all manner of maple merriment, including sappy stories and tall tales by a roaring fire, and using a bit and brace. Acquire new skills to take on your next trek into the sugarbush, and learn the secrets of collecting sugar-maple sap out in the woods.
