Lincoln School third-graders sample the maple syrup they helped make.
The third grade at Lincoln School recently completed its annual educational and charitable maple syrup collaboration with Nancy Bergen and Ephraim Flint at Matlock Farm, where the students tap trees, collect the sap, and learn all about the process, nature, mathematics, and writing along the way. Nancy and Ephraim served as guides to the students, sharing their knowledge and imparting an appreciation for this time-honored local resource.
This year the group raised $1,920 (easily topping last year’s total of $1,400) and made donations to the Ronald McDonald House, Doctors Without Boarders, and Codman Farm.
