Ontario Maple Weekend
- The Lanark and District Maple Syrup Producers Association
will be hosting the fourth Annual Maple Weekend on April 6-7,
2019 from 10am to 4pm. Participants in the Maple Weekend can
be found in Lanark, Leeds and Grenville, Frontenac and the City
of Ottawa. Maple Weekend is an annual event designed to provide
producers with an opportunity to showcase their operations and
maple products. By working collaboratively with other producers,
we are able to leverage our marketing and promotion efforts.
The benefits include increased farm gate sales, increased profile
for your operation, and through the Maple Weekend website on
online presence that will increase your visibility to local
consumers.
For consumers, the event provides a first-hand opportunity to see how maple products are produced, from tree to table, along with the chance to taste and purchase quality maple products. Many maple syrup producers will be offering free samples of fresh syrup, as well as maple candies and confections. Come enjoy pancake breakfasts, sugarbush trails, sugar making demonstrations, taffy on snow, horse-drawn sleigh rides, and more. Experience the traditional maple sugaring craft and taste why pure Ontario maple syrup has long been a favourite springtime treat. Check out our website at www.mapleweekend.ca for a list of participating producers and make a plan to visit with a local producer.
