“As before, citizens have the right to independently engage in self-harvesting of sap – this is stipulated in the Forest Code of the Republic of Belarus. For this, it is necessary to contact the nearest forestry, where they will advise you on suitable areas for harvesting and the specifics of sap collection,” the message says.
In addition, ready-made birch sap can be purchased at affordable prices at special retail outlets, as well as on the territory of forestries and forest districts.
