How
large a group can you handle on a tour?
There is no limit to how large of a
group would like to come for a Maple Syrup Tour. However, prior notice and data confirmation is expected. If you have a
very large group, please contact
us so we can make arrangements for several groups leaving at
different times.
Is
the tour suitable for children?
Absolutely! Children love
learning how maple syrup is made. The tour is both fun and
educational. They also love the sweet treats at the end of
the tour!
Children are always welcome at our
Sugar House. After the tour, they can visit our four Siberian Huskies sled dogs, pet turkey and bob white quail. If your family comes during Maple weekend you can
enjoy a horse-drawn wagon ride through the sugar bush! Kids
always love their visit!
Do
you have a store or gift shop at Maple Glen?
Yes. When you visit Maple
Glen, you can shop for all the products
you see on our website. Our Maple Syrup store was built in the

we be allowed to see how you actually make the syrup?
Certainly! That's half of
the fun!
