Maple Open House Festivities at Crescent Bay Farm
This year the Lane family is inviting the community to join them in celebrating 35 years of sugaring! Festivities include an interactive walking tour of the sugarbush on March 20th, visiting hours at the sugarhouse to watch the boil and taste fresh syrup (weather dependent), and stopping by Snow Farm Vineyard to purchase maple syrup made on the farm!
Sugarmaking Tour at Fox Hill Maple: Join Farmer Nick Lane on Sunday, March 20th at 1pm for a walking tour up Fox Hill to see the sugarbush in action. Learn about the process of sugaring from sap to syrup, the history of the farm. Plus, Guy Maguire from South Hero Land Trust will be on hand with some fun activities for kids, where they'll get to tap a tree, do a maple-themed scavenger hunt, and more! The tour will start at Snow Farm Vineyard.
