Dear Maple Syrup Eating Friends,

We have something in common and that is we both love Pure Vermont Maple Syrup!

If you and your family are regular consumers or are first time buyers, I can assure you that my goal is to supply you with the very best maple syrup that I can produce.

I learned at a very young age from my father and passed down to him by his father the art of sugar making. Three generations of maple products have been produced at our location. I am so grateful to be a descendant of talented woodsmen, sugar makers and good stewards of the land. We keep a diversified forest that is the home to a variety of birds and mammals throughout the seasons.

Our sugarhouse is not a modern facility by appearance, but inside it has the latest generation of food quality producing equipment available. Food grade plastics and stainless steel give assurance of pure products. Food safety is a top priority at our sugar house along with proper filtering, grading, bottling and labeling. We are always open for your questions or comments .   

We hope that you and your family will enjoy this very special gift that nature has given us as there is nothing else like it!

Your Friend In Maple,
Ed
