This year the Lane family is inviting the community to join them in celebrating 36 years of sugaring! Read on below for a full list of festivities schedule for March 25:

10:30 AM "Be a Maple Tree" Activity with Julie Lane - For kids and the kids at heart, get an introduction to what makes a maple tree special in a series of fun games and activities. Meet at Snow Farm Vineyard.

11:00 AM -12:30 PM Sugarbush Tour - Learn the story of maple as it travels from tree to plate, starting with a short video followed by a walking tour of Fox Hill with Nick and Julie Lane, along with a scavenger hunt, tree tapping, and other kids activities with Guy and Anna from South Hero Land Trust! Please note this walk is about 1/4 mile over uneven terrain and ducking under sap lines as we go. This tour starts and ends at Snow Farm Vineyard. RSVPs encouraged. Please RSVP Here>>https://www.shlt.org/events

12:00 PM (and ongoing): Boil at the Sugarhouse - Pop over to the sugarhouse (which is just down the road) for sweet tastes of sugar on snow, while watching the sap boiling and turning to syrup before your eyes. Hot dogs and snacks also for sale. Please note that sugaring is very weather dependent, and we encourage you to check Snow Farm's facebook page for updates on when they'll be boiling at the sugarhouse.

1:00 PM Sugar Games - Stick around the sugarhouse for log hauling competitions, a sap relay race, and more - great for kids and kids at heart!

5:00-7:00PM Live Music and Pancake Dinner at Snow Farm Vineyard. Come celebrate maple season with great food and great company.

Buy Maple Syrup: Stop by Snow Farm Vineyard to purchase maple syrup and other products made by the Lane family! Address: 190 West Shore Rd., South Hero, Open Saturday and Sunday 11am - 5pm.
