Our Sugarbush - A True Canadian Tradition

Open weekends February 27th - April 11th, 2010, 9am - 3pm.

OPEN MARCH BREAK - March 17th, 18th, 19th from 10am - 2pm

Experience the authentic production of pure Canadian Maple Syrup - from horse drawn sap collection to taffy in the snow - each spring at Stanley's Olde Maple Lane Farm.

The farm has been producing Maple Syrup since the 1800s, and our methods haven't changed that much in all these years.

This year, Maple Syrup Season starts Saturday February 27th, and runs through to April 11th, 2010. Join us for a sleigh ride, visit the sugar shack, and watch the sap to syrup process unfold while enjoying taffy on the snow and a pancake brunch at the Pancake House or join us for our Easter Egg Hunt. Group bookings can also be accommodated throughout the week.

Prices (taxes included). Reservations NOT required.

Sleigh Rides

Yes, we do sleigh rides at the farm!

Sleigh rides are private December through to February

Our horse-drawn sleighs are approximately one hour long and accommodate up to 20 guests. We have a driver as well as a coach man on the ride and they are always more than willing to give you a brief history of the farm, farm events and the surrounding community. This gives your guests a real sense of the farm and area history. The ride travels around the farm through the forests that we tap for Maple Syrup.

Once you get back after your hour ride you can visit the farm animals in the barn, go to the Stone House gift shop and enjoy a cup of Hot Chocolate and a fresh-baked cookie.

The whole experience will last about 2 hours.

For example: Arrival 1:45pm, Sleigh Ride 2pm, Cookie & Hot Chocolate 3pm, & Departure before 4pm.

Total Cost $225 (plus tax)
