Today, there are nearly 18 Sugarhouses in town, turning out some 8,000 gallons of syrup in a good season.
The Whitingham Maple sugar festival honors the maple tradition by volunteering their time and energy to host an exciting tasteful weekend the whole family can enjoy with plenty of sampling of hot maple syrup.
The show runs from 7:30am to 7:00pm on Saturday March 28 and from 7am to 5pm on Sunday March 29.
This is the 9th Annual Craft Fair & Maple Festival which is held at this location in which many of the vendors return to each year. There are also events spread thru the area relating to Maple Surgaring for the entire weekend. It is definately worth the trip as there is always something for every member of the family to do.Space filled quickly this year and no more crafter space is available.Tentative Schedule of Events for the 12th Annual Maple Festival
