TOUR INFORMATION
What will we do on our tour?
Hunters Maple Bush is a family owned and operated maple farm. We provide an authentic, in depth explanation of the sugaring process, from tree to table. We have an educational agricultural focus and tours are roughly an hour long.
We will meet at the Maple Shop. From there we will hike through the bush with an explanation of the harvesting and collection of sap & view one of the pump houses. We will then continue to the Sugar House where you will see first hand the transformation as sap is boiled down to produce our liquid gold maple syrup.
After the tour you are welcome to sit around the fire and enjoy a coffee and visit our shop.
How do I book our tour?
Our entire season is dependant on the weather - with that being said our start dates and end dates change each year!

OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Please Be Advised - MUST READ Before Your Visit
- Upon your arrival you will be asked to sign a Farm Liability Waiver. We are a functioning farm and although we have taken all the proper precautions to keep you safe, there are some things we cannot control, ie. falling limbs, while you are participating in farm activities.
-Please keep your furry friends at home
-Please do not smoke in the bush
- Our trails are unfortunately not stroller or wheelchair friendly however you are absolutely welcome to try. Our bush is in its natural state so the trails are not paved / gravel. They will often be snowy or muddy. A great option is a toboggan for the kids if there is snow.
- DRESS FOR THE WEATHER
We cannot stress this enough! A lot of the tour we will be outside in the bush. Be prepared for snow, ice, wind and mud as the season gets warmer. Proper footwear is imperative.
-As you will be in a group with others please be considerate and be on time for your tour. A 5 minute grace period will be given, afterwards the tour will commence. If you are late and unable to make the tour please call so we are aware and can attempt to reschedule.
- There may be a possibility of us cancelling your tour due to inclement weather. We will try our best to give you as much notice as possible but often times this is a last minute decision as weather is always changing.
- We cannot guarantee to be in active production at the time of your visit. If it is cold, the lines will be frozen therefore we will not be collecting the sap to boil and run the evaporator.
- Parking is limited, please consider carpooling if you have a larger group
- We do not have a pancake house
- Portable washroom will be onsite
Our 2023 Sugaring Season Has Come To A Close
