BATH — Students from Jobs for Maine’s Graduates (JMG) at Morse High School and Bath Regional Career and Technical Center ( BRCTC) plan to host Maine Maple Friday.
Activities will run from 8:45 a.m. to 10:15 a.m. and from 11:45 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Friday in the culinary arts lab at BRCTC.
There will be maple product samples (muffins, cookies, etc.), a demonstration of boiling sap into syrup and cooking demonstrations. The event is open to the public.
Maine Maple Friday is part of a larger scale project that JMG and BRCTC students are working on with the Bath city arborist Tom Hoerth. The two programs are using three acres of Butler Head to manage a small maple syrup business. The sap will be sold to a local “syruper” for processing, and the profits will be donated to a nonprofit organization.
