Maple Syrup Festival- Open House

  • Dairy Discovery 12877 84th st Alto United States (map)

Think Spring! There’s no better sign that spring is right around the corner, then when sap starts running through the majestic maple tree. Dairy Discovery is joining with Wittenbach Wege Center, in Lowell, to celebrate with a Maple Syrup Festival.

Start at the Wittenbach Wege center on March 13th at 10 am. Travel the trails of the WWC and go back in time and learn how maple sap was harvested and processed by both Native Americans and early settlers with the Lowell Historical Museum and WWC Naturalists.

Afterwards, drive over to SwissLane Specialty shop to see maple syrup being processed in real time! Drive with the caravan of cars back to our maple trees, where you’ll see sap being collected in sap buckets or through our modern “lines.” Come into the Sugar Shack and see the machines we use to boil the sap and produce and package our delicious syrup. Shack will be open 11-3. Please dress warm and appropriately. Spring also means muddy trails.

Farm only tour- $5/person

Purchase added fun at WWC- $3/person plus their entry fee
