(PROPHETSTOWN) - Join us from Noon to 4 p.m. each day this weekend at the Native American village at Prophetstown State Park for this once-a-year maple sugaring demonstration.
Visitors will see, smell, and taste history during this event. Woodland Indian Educational Program presenters, Jessica and Mark Eaton, will demonstrate historic Native American-style maple sugaring techniques using clay vessels, hot stone boiling, and evaporation in metal kettles.
Help stir the sap, tend the fire, taste the treats, and more. Additionally, park staff will have hands-on crafts, including a maple walking stick you make yourself ($5 fee.)
The activities are open to the public after paying the gate admission fee of $8/carload (in-state) or $10/carload (out-of-state).
