Minerva Maple from River Bend Christmas Tree Farm
|
Bruce always had the dream of producing real Adirondack maple syrup on 100 acres we own in the heart of the Adirondack Park in Minerva, NY. In 2010 production began in a hobby evaporator and a few gallons of syrup were made. In 2015, a full blown sugar house was built and new equipment purchased to start larger scale production. Considering the farm is a "hobby gone wild," it only makes sense that maple syrup would go that way too. While our sugarbush isn't open to the public, we do sell our syrup year round and especially at Christmas at the farm. Check out the photos of our genuine Adirondack sugarbush!

Saratoga Maple
During the pandemic, we ended up with a lot of syrup and not a great way to sell it, so in 2020 we launched the next generation of our maple syrup products for shipping, Saratoga Maple! Our online maple syrup and maple product store includes new products to meet our customers' ever changing needs and tastes. Be sure to check out our Bourbon Maple Cream which is a hit with everyone who tries it. We also have our own gourmet pancake mix and maple syrup gift baskets.
In 2021, we started aging our Adirondack maple syrup in bourbon barrels and created our latest product, Barrel Aged Bourbon Maple Syrup. It's a must try!
