Geocache Description:

All of the caches in this series are located at or near Taste of Nova Scotia sites. ToNS is a program that the provincial government funds to bring exceptional Nova Scotia producers and culinary craftmen to the forefront. There are so many restaurants, wineries and farm markets, that show the variety of food and drink in this province.

This cache is next to a ToNS producer.

Maple syrup is a syrup usually made from the xylem sap of sugar maple, red maple, or black maple trees, although it can also be made from other maple species. In cold climates, these trees store starch in their trunks and roots before the winter; the starch is then converted to sugar that rises in the sap in the spring. Maple trees can be tapped by boring holes into their trunks and collecting the exuded sap. The sap is processed by heating to evaporate much of the water, leaving the concentrated syrup.

Maple syrup was first collected and used by the indigenous peoples of North America. The practice was initially adopted by French settlers, who gradually refined production methods.

Don't forget to look for some of the other caches in the series.
