    Description

    When temperatures rise and the snow begins to melt, it means it's time for MapleFest at Tollgate Farm! This family-friendly event celebrates the magic of maple syrup on the farm. Guests will start their experience with a delicious pancake meal-- flipped straight off the griddle onto their plate! After filling up, they'll enjoy a wagon ride to our sugar bush and experience the story and science of maple syrup production while traveling along our educational Maple Trail to the Sugar Shack. Everything ends with a taste of maple in the toasty greenhouse and then taking a quick trip to visit the animals in the barn. This year's event is generously sponsored by MSUFCU.

    This is one of the largest fundraising events for Tollgate Farm and we need your help! There are a variety of volunteer opportunities, both indoors and out. Please consider signing up for a shift, or two, or more. A soup lunch will be provided for all volunteers.

    As always, thank you for all you do to support Tollgate Farm Education Center-- we couldn't do this without generous people like you! Hope to see you there!
