Agricultural Spotlight – Maple Weekend
“Plan for a sweet weekend! Over a dozen maple producers from throughout Potter and Tioga Counties will be making maple syrup and maple products and opening their sugar shacks to the public from 10 AM – 4 PM for this “traveling festival.”
The Potter-Tioga Maple Producers Association would like to invite you and your family to come tour one of fifteen maple syrup operations open this Saturday and Sunday from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm.
To download the fold out colored map showing the location, directions, phone numbers, websites, and/or emails of the participating producers go to www.pamaple.com.
All tours will have taste testing stations and demonstrations on how maple syrup is collected, boiled, and bottled. Visitors can purchase dark, amber, or light maple syrup, maple candy, maple sugar, maple cream and other items made from maple syrup. Several locations are also serving pancakes while supplies last.
Each sugar operation is unique. Some are mom & pop operations using traditional collection and boiling methods. While other’s are commercial operations making thousands of gallons of syrup and using state of the art evaporator. So if you have the time, try to stop and visit more than one.
To see an example of some of the types of maple products available this weekend, watch today’s Feature filmed on site at Miller’s Purely Maple, located at 2766 Hills Creek Lake Road, Wellsboro, PA. (The farm is located at the junction of Hills Creek Road and Hills Creek Lake Road on the West Side of the Lake).
Come on out and enjoy a day in the country. [Look for yellow signs with a maple leaf and the words Maple Festival along your travel routes this weekend].
