March brings the promise of spring and the start of the sweetest time of year: maple syrup season. The third coin in the Celebrating Canadian Fun and Festivities series samples the sugar bush experience in eastern and central Canada, where visitors enjoy sweet treats and learn about a syrup-making process that originated with the Indigenous peoples of Canada.
