Question 1: What tree is used to make maple syrup?
- Sugar maple
- Pine

Answer: Sugar maple
Fact: Maple syrup is made from the sap of the sugar maple tree. In early spring, the tree’s sap is collected and then boiled to make the sweet syrup. Pine and oak trees do not produce sap that can be used for syrup. Only certain types of maple trees, especially sugar maples, have the right kind of sap.
Question 2: What is the process of collecting sap called?
- Tapping
- Fermenting
- Milling
Answer: Tapping
Fact: The process of collecting sap from trees is called tapping. It involves making small cuts or holes in the tree bark to let the sap flow out. A container is placed to collect the dripping sap. This method is commonly used for trees like maple or palm. Fermenting and milling are different processes used after collection.
Question 3: When is maple sap usually collected?
- Late summer
- Early spring
- Mid-winter
Answer: Early spring
Fact: Maple sap is usually collected in early spring. This is when the temperatures are cold at night and warmer during the day, which helps the sap flow. The sap comes from sugar maple trees. It is collected and boiled to make maple syrup. This process is called “sugaring season” and happens for a few weeks each year.
