Whether you are an OMSPA member or not, this website provides information on the latest news and developments, as well as access to our classified section.

Producing maple syrup presents a lot of challenges - everything from woodlot management to sap collection, to processing, and to the marketing and sales end of the business – all require the producer to deal with a multitude of decisions that affect the success of the enterprise. There are lots of good sources of information available, such as the North American Maple Syrup Producers Manual and a number of web sites which provide a wealth of information for both the beginning and seasoned producer. We are not attempting to duplicate any of that useful information here; but we will try to point you in the right direction and provide information of some of the new developments that may impact your operation.

Come back and visit this section regularly, as we will be posting new information of interest to all producers on a regular basis. Members should log into the Members Only section to access more detailed information on some of the issues referenced above, and to view more detailed information on OMSPA related events and activities.
