Maple Weekend – Mission Accomplished

What a weekend we had this year.  Beautiful weather both days, despite some wind on Saturday.  We could not have been happier welcoming all the folks who made their way to ours and many other sugarhouse this weekend and the last several during Maple Month.  It just shows that New Hampshire Maple Syrup is holding its own in the hearts of many as a natural and nutritious sweetener for pancakes and so much more.  And we can’t forget the H-U-G-E THANKS we owe to everyone who came for their patience in lines and their consideration in using all the trash baskets.  Not a scrap of trash on the grounds anywhere!  Nicely done folks.  

And heartfelt thanks to our awesome family who can’t be beat!  Mom, who grinds out all those samples you enjoy, Megan at the checkout, Tyler and Kristy on Ice Cream, Lynn, Terry and Kaiya helping with chasing supplies and samples back and forth.  And Simon, who was the wood master, keeping his grandpas wheelbarrow full for boiling all weekend!  We love them all and could not do this without their support.

Best Wishes to All.

NH Maple Weekend Open House

March 23rd 10am to 5pm & 24th 10am to 4pm

Once again we look forward to welcoming visitors to our sugarhouse for NH Maple Weekend.  The “tours” we offer are in the sugarhouse and FREE!  Brian goes over the maple production process from start to finish over and over all day long.  So if you come in part way through just wait a bit and he’ll come back to the beginning.  Questions are always welcome anytime.  There are trees tapped close by to check out too, both in the yard and down a short path.  (Boots encouraged for this.) And be sure to check out the Maple Leafs with Maple Trivia questions to test your maple knowledge.

In the store we’ll have a variety of samples of maple products to taste and buy.  And it would not be Maple Weekend without Maple Ice Cream Sundaes.  Those will be on sale too  ($2.00 ea) with your choice of maple walnut ice cream from Blake’s Creamery (made with real maple syrup) or vanilla ice cream for those who’d prefer that, topped with our own fresh maple syrup and real whipped cream.

As always we’ll have a special table set up with some handouts for the adults and kids in the crowd as take-aways from your visit (while supplies last).

PARKING: Crowds can be expected so please park only on the right hand, even numbered side (our side) of Candia Road or on Sheepwash Drive a short walk before you get to our place.  No parking will be allowed on the hill beyond our driveway for safety reasons.  The driveway and parking area are dirt and can be muddy so proper footwear is encouraged.

We accept Visa, Master Card, Discover, American Express and Apple Pay.

For your convenience we do have a Porta-potty on site.
