Because McHenry County Conservation District's Festival of the Sugar Maples event can attract roughly 600 visitors per day, and health officials have encouraged citizens to limit gatherings of large groups, for the safety of our visitors we are cancelling this upcoming weekend's Festival of the Sugar Maples, that was scheduled March 14 & 15 at Coral Woods Conservation Area in Marengo. We apologize for any inconvenience.

We encourage you to come out next year to enjoy the Festival, and in the meantime check out this video to learn more about sugar maple trees: MCCD.me/SugarMaples.
