PURE VERMONT MAPLE IS LIQUID GOLD

Spring is a sweet season in the Green Mountains as warmer days and cold nights kickstart the flow of sap in sugar maple trees. More than 3,000 producers in Vermont work to make more maple than in any other state. In Vermont, learn about the sugarmaking process, originally created by Indigenous People. Celebrate the season with a festival and sample cocktail infusions, dry rubs, sauces, and candy in addition to pure Vermont maple syrup and sugar.
