About us
We started making maple
syrup a number of years ago, with a modest beginning of 7 taps. It was
Leonard, Rob's
brother who decided
to give tapping our maple trees a try. We made maple syrup for our own
use at first, but soon had requests for purchases of maple syrup. We soon
found demand was greater than our supply and a number of
times expanded our number
of taps, and size of operation.
Along the way we had
many request for pure maple candy and cream, and have had quite a demand
for our
confections. We
have since expanded our confections to include several kinds of maple candies.
We have maple
hard candies, and maple
walnut caramels that melt in your mouth. We also make granulated maple
sugar. It is very similar to brown sugar, but is dryer.
We have come a long way since
the first 7 taps, expanding to more than 4000 taps, and into our
present sugar house,
and a much larger evaporator.
What started as a hobby
has become a full time family business for us.
Along with the maple
syrup, we also raise golden retrievers, and mini-lop bunnies.
