The young leaves (harvest by the end of April) are healthy and edible. They taste good in soups, salads, as a spinach alternative or as a tea infusion. You can make maple syrup from the flowers.
Maple has anti-inflammatory, fever and blood pressure lowering effects.
Fresh leaves can be placed directly on insect bites or bruises to provide relief.
