Join Bourdon Maple Farm for a sunset tour around the sugarbush! As stewards of the land, they care about the health and sustainability of the forest. Their land is conserved in the Vermont Land Trust, which looks to preserve Vermont's rural working landscape. They also maintain a state-approved forest management plan to ensure that they are utilizing the land in a way that is in alignment with both their agricultural goals and the continued ecological health and resilience of our forest. This plan, along with sustainable tapping practices to make sure the land is viable for future generations.
The tour is $5 (kids 12 and under are free), and there will be a campfire and smores at the end of the hike!
Note: Cross the Lincoln Covered Bridge from Rte 4 and turn right onto Bridges Rd. Continue 0.9 miles until turning left onto Bourdon Rd up a small hill. The sugarhouse will be directly in front of you.
Bourdon Maple Farm is a 10,000 tap maple operation that works hard to carry on one of Vermont's most longstanding traditions, utilizing the farm's natural resources and working with the seasons to produce pure organic Vermont maple syrup. In addition to being certified organic, the forest is conserved in the Vermont Land Trust and certified as part of the Bird-Friendly Maple Project through Audubon Vermont. Their maple syrup is available for sale at the sugarhouse year round and supplies several local restaurants in the area.
