Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get to the farm?

From I-91:

  • Take Exit 2 to Route 9 West/Marlboro Rd.

  • Continue for about 4 miles, then turn left onto Cooke Rd.

  • After crossing over the Whetstone Brook, you’ll see the sugarhouse on your left. Continue up Cooke Rd to the small building with the “Pure Vermont Maple Syrup” sign, where you can purchase our delicious maple products.

What do the different maple syrup grades mean?

Maple syrup grades are based on color and flavor. We sell three grades of syrup:

  • Golden Delicate: Typically produced early in the season, this is the lightest grade and has a subtle and delicate maple flavor. Formerly known as “Grade A - Fancy”.

  • Amber Rich: Typically produced mid-season, this grade is slightly darker and has a richer maple flavor that makes it well-suited for all-around use. Formerly known as “Grade A - Light Amber”.

  • Dark Robust: Typically produced mid-to-late season, this grade packs the most punch in terms of color and maple flavor. Perfect for all-around use, and particularly delicious in cooking and baking. Formerly known as “Grade A - Dark Amber”.

All grades have the same quality and density (i.e., sugar content), so there’s no “best” or “worst” choice — it’s all up to personal preference!

When is sugaring season?

Maple syrup is produced during the transition from winter to spring, typically between late February and early April. Warm temperatures during the daytime and freezing temperatures at night cause sap to flow within the trees. We tap the trees and collect that sap to turn into delicious maple syrup, which we bottle and sell throughout the whole year!
