Montreal Is Hosting A Free “Maple Syrup Food Festival”

Ah, spring. Is there a season more beautiful? Everything's defrosting and coming back to life; it's truly a magical time. And what screams "spring" and "magic" in Montreal? That's right, friends. Maple syrup.
For the sixth year in a row, La Cabane Panache et Bois rond will be taking over the Promenade Wellington, starting on March 18 and ending on March 20, 2016. For those of you who know a little about this event, you already know what you're in for (A good time). For those of you a little new to things, don't worry. This event is super fun and celebrates all things maple syrup, with a a traditional tire d'érable, contests, games, music, and food (And much more, of course).
