What is it Wednesday: February 28, 2019




Can you identify what's in this photo?


Each Wednesday morning 
on Camp Lutherlyn's Facebook page
 the Lutherlyn Environmental Education Program posts a photo. 


Readers have all morning and afternoon 
to make their best guess about what the photo is. 

Around 6 pm LEEP provides the answer and a brief explanation.


Each week's What is it Wednesday post 
will also be posted on the Nature of Lutherlyn blog, 
the day after it is posted on Facebook,
sometimes with additional bonus information. 

In addition to bringing you current editions of What is it Wednesday 
on the Nature of Lutherlyn blog, 
we will be reposting old editions,
creating a What is it Wednesday archive. 

This photo was posted as a What is it Wednesday on February 27, 2019. 



And the answer is....


This is a closeup of the sign on Lutherlyn’s sugar shack, where we boil maple sap into maple syrup (perhaps the best-smelling place at Lutherlyn, during maple season!).




This Saturday is LEEP’s annual maple sugaring Saturday Safari – join us to be a part of maple sugaring at Lutherlyn! 

Everyone gets to choose and tap a tree, hang a bucket, collect sap from previously tapped trees, and see (and taste!) sap being  boiled in maple syrup, while also learning about how trees function and how to identify trees in the winter. 

Your participation in the day’s activities helps make the delicious real maple syrup we eat in the dining hall over the next year!
