2024 Maple Day
Saturday, February 17, 2024 | 10:30 a.m.-2:00 p.m.
Maple Day is an educational event sponsored by the University of Kentucky's Department of Forestry and Natural Resources, and celebrated across the Commonwealth highlighting the start of the maple syrup season.
Join us at Shaker Village as we celebrate all things maple! With the purchase of an onsite admission ticket at the Welcome Center you'll learn how we tap our trees, collect sap and boil it down on our wood-fired evaporator to make the sweet maple syrup we all love.
Visit the Farm to see our team processing sap from 10:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., and learn more about how that wonderful maple syrup gets to your table on our Sap to Syrup tours at 11:00 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.
Don't forget to reserve a spot at The Trustees' Table for breakfast to get a taste of our maple syrup. For Maple Day you will find maple syrup-infused dishes on our menu for breakfast, lunch and dinner! Including a French toast casserole with maple syrup for breakfast and a salad with baby spinach, maple-glazed pecans, goat cheese and maple balsamic vinaigrette for lunch and dinner.
