To the left, two women are enjoying maple taffy. One holds a maple sugar paddle and the other a container. In the centre, a man holds a metal bucket containing maple sap. Around the sugar shack are buckets and barrels. An opening can be seen on the roof of the shack to allow the steam created by the boiling maple sap to escape.
