There is lots to do at the harvest, including all-you-can-eat pancakes, making maple toffee and heading out on the Maple Sugar trail. Make sure you dress for the weather and wear appropriate footwear; it’s an outdoor experience!
You can even see the maple syrup process! You’ll get to check the sap buckets on the trees and watch sap evaporate into syrup. You’ll even get a little maple syrup education while you’re there.
If after the pancakes and toffee making you’ve still got a hankering for some sweets, head to the Heritage Barn to purchase some more. Bring home some syrup, candies or gifts! Make sure to hit the ATM before you arrive, as the farm is cash only.
