As I have been to two other similar farms, I thought I knew what to expect. This farm experience was completely different than any I had ever experienced previously. Although the animals were beautiful in appearance, they seemed to only respond to the owner when she plied them with treats. They didn't seem to be trained to walk along with strangers, namely people they were not familiar with. I was especially disappointed as I had booked a private as opposed to a group hike. I will say that the owner was accommodating when the weather was not conducive to hiking; she allowed us to change our reservation to another day.

Maple Weekend brings sugaring demos and tours, a sweet little petting zoo for the kids, wood sculpture demos, and an awesome pancake breakfast. It's amazing how many delicacies they can create from this glorious sap: syrup, candy, maple peanuts (you'll want to buy at least 2 bags - these are like crack!), maple cream, and maple bourbon (cheers!) too. Enjoy this great local find and don't hog the peanuts! ;)

It was great that we went early because there wasn't much parking. We went inside for their pancake and bacon breakfast which was awesome- best part.. the maple syrup!

We got to see wood carving and the maple machinery during the small tour. It was a quick visit but very much enjoyable.
