We want to thank everyone for such a great 2024 season. We welcomed a new little guy into the family this month and won't be taping trees this season. We look forward to seeing all of you again for the 2026 season!!

We've been boiling like crazy today and will be late into the night. Just wanted to let all the darker syrup lovers know the good news. It's coming along! Today was the first real change in color. A nice pretty Grade A Dark, next up will be the Very Dark 😍

Mother nature has shown us some love! We have had nothing but full buckets since we tapped and we are working hard to get it all boiled down.

We drew off and filtered our first batch of 2024 syrup this morning. It's a nice light medium amber.

Our family prefers the darker syrup which comes a little later in the season but we will have a nice batch of medium to bottle up in the next few days.

It's been 5 years since we tapped trees on the farm but today was a beautiful day spent in the woods with the little guys. The last time we tapped Billy was just barely 2 years old, in a pack on my back, as we tromped through knee-deep snow gathering sap.

Tommy and Billy are the 10th generation on the farm and to my knowledge there wasn't a generation that didn't gather sap to boil for syrup. What was once a necessity is now one of our favorite passtimes on the farm. We love the syrup but it's such a nice way to welcome Spring and get out into nature while the daylight is still minimal.

We will be open to the public for New Hampshire Maple Weekend in March! Stay tuned for more info and a little history along the way. 😊

We have good news! The weather has cooperated and we have lots and lots of sap to boil for all of you this weekend.

Just finished a couple batches of Whipped Maple Butter as well as Whipped Maple Cream, both go great on just about everything!

See you all in the morning! :)

Just a few days away from the weekend we have all be waiting for... Maple Weekend!
We are excited to see old friends and new faces. We will be open Saturday & Sunday from 9am - 3pm.

There will be free tours and demonstrations taking place throughout the day, they usually run about 20 minutes and we do them as close to back to back as we can. We will have free samples of maple syrup as well as maple snow cones!

There will be some of our traditional products like Maple Syrup, Granulated Maple Sugar, Maple Cream, and Maple Body Scrub as well as some exciting new ones. Keep an eye out for the Maple Cream Candles, Maple Glaze, Maple Lip Balm, and Maple Cotton Candy.

The team of Belgian horses, Pat & Mike, will also be out front for meet and greets! Some of you will remember from 2 years ago they really put on a show playing around together.

If you need directions the address for the Sugar House is 23 Meaderboro Rd. Rochester, NH. 03867. If you have any questions please call the store, also located on the farm, Meader Supply, at 603-332-3032.

Please remember we do our best to keep products in stock but have been known to sell out fairly quickly as we make everything on the farm in small batches.

Thank you!

William did a great job representing the 10th generation on the farm. Today was his first trip out gathering sap! He had fun and mom got a serious workout! Thanks to our awesome team we got it all gathered. Christine Meader Jonathan Langley Jason Parent Abby Etter Brody Shaw

We want to thank everyone that has come out in years past to join our family for Maple weekend. This year we will be taking a break to spend time with family. The 10th generation was born on the farm on Dec 1st and we greatly look forward to spending time with the new little guy! We will miss you all this year but we look forward to seeing you all in 2018!!
