School Programs:
During
our Maple Season (March-mid May) we open our sugarhouse and
sugarbush to area public and private schools for field
trips. One of our many objectives is to create a place where
people can learn about nature (trees, forests, wildlife,
wildflowers, woodland foods, weather and ecological
systems). Other objectives include educating people about
where their food comes from, farming the forest, how a tree
makes maple sap, the history of maple syrup, imitation food
products versus pure products and health/nutritional
benefits, and most important how the maple syrup making
process works. We offer a class, group, or organization a
presentation that can be adjusted to any age level, specific
needs or interests, objectives, or curriculum. The cost of
our presentation is $2.00 per person with a maximum group
size of 50 persons and will last an hour and a half.

If you choose our guided tour, our
sugarhouse is located only 50 feet from the road with good
car and bus parking right at the door. Our sugarhouse is
handicapped accessible, the outdoor trails into the
sugarbush (forest), which is within walking distance, is
not. There are tables for eating, water, a microwave, pot
belly stoves, and a porta-potty.
Visitors
should wear warm clothes and boots as the trials into the
Sugarbush may be snow covered and slippery.

Group, Clubs & Family
Tours:
Instead
of a wine tour, how about a maple tour! It's natural,
non-alcholic and family oriented. We offer group tours
to no more than 50 people at one time and have ample bus or
car parking. Please note our sugarhouse is handicapped
accessible, but we have only primitive bathroom facilities.
Visitors
should wear warm clothes and boots as the trials into the
Sugarbush may be snow covered and slippery.
