Seasonal festival · County-wide

Maple in the County

The County's season opener: sugar bushes throw open the doors for pancake breakfasts, syrup demonstrations and taffy rolled on snow, before the tasting rooms properly wake up.

What it is

County sugar bushes open to the public for pancake breakfasts, maple tastings, syrup-making demonstrations and taffy on snow.

Restaurants and drinks producers across the County run maple-themed specials over the same weekend.

It runs alongside, but is separate from, Maple Madness, a programme of sugar-bush visits every Saturday and Sunday through March.

Good to know

  • This is the County's first event of the year, when many tasting rooms are still weekend-only. Check winery hours before building a day around it.
  • The festival has no website of its own. Dates surface on the tourism calendar and the organisers' Facebook page.

Confirmed via the Chamber of Tourism seasonal calendar and the organisers' Facebook page; there is no organiser-run website.
