cept me, “Sugar on Snow” - Maple syrup brought to temperature mixed with snow. It kind of reminded me of a cool, maple lol- lipop…Not that I’ve ever had one. Though I didn’t get to
taste any, Kathy also ex- plained to me, as she will explain to others during the Maple Sugaring pro- gram, how to make maple butter. She suggested it as a tasty addition to a ham and cheese sand- wich. After the visit to the Ma-
ple Sugar House I caught up with a group of first and second graders who were being shown histori- cal demonstrations of the making of maple syrup. Remick Farm educator
Susan Junkins, had the group in awe as she stood behind a hollowed out tree trunk into which she fed hot rocks from a small
fire nearby. This was a demonstration of how early Native Americans first boiled the sap. One legend has it that they discovered the wonder of maple syrup after an arrow pierced a tree leak- ing the sap onto the car- cass of a dead deer. Upon cooking the deer they first noticed the unique flavor. (This was one of the legends told to me by Kathy Johnson while in the Maple Sugar House.) Next the group was
shown a large cauldron over a wood fire that was used by early pilgrims as they boiled their sap. Finally they were shown an evaporator used in the 1800s by Doctor Remick himself in the production of the liquid gold. I must admit I learned
as much about the histo- ry of the making of maple syrup as the group did that day. I guess you’re

never too old to learn something new. The group made its way
to the Maple Sugar House where Rick and Kathy awaited. I felt it was too nice a day to head right back to the office, so I strolled the expansive grounds for awhile. Tak- ing a small hike up to some of the tapped maple trees. It was a lot of fun and I thank the folks at the Re- mick Country Doctor Mu- seum and Farm for giving me this early preview.
