Looking for something fun to do with the family?
Ever wondered how delicious maple syrup is made?
Well, look no further! Maple Syrup Tours at Maybury Farm begin soon.
The tour begins with a tractor drawn wagon ride out to the Sugar Bush. Once you arrive, you take a short walk into the woods to learn about the maple trees, how to tap them, and then how to collect the sap.
Taste sap straight from the tree!
You may even get a chance to taste the sap straight from the tree.
The wagon will then take you back to the Sugar Shack where you will watch how the sap is converted into delicious maple syrup. You will also have an opportunity to taste the finished syrup.
Once your tour is finished, you are invited to head inside Maybury Farm’s General Store, where hot drinks and snacks are available to purchase.
Enjoy the farm and the animals before you leave Maybury.
