How Sweet Is Is: Vermont Maple Weekend
Open House Weekend, March 22-23
Plan to visit the 16th Annual Whitingham Maple Festival in Whitingham on March 22 and 23 to learn about sugar making and its historical importance in the town. Whitingham is the birthplace of Brigham Young and there are two monuments in town noting Young’s achievements. In addition that weekend, the town hosts a Craft Fair on Saturday /Sunday, Pancake breakfasts/luncheons on both Saturday and Sunday and a sugar on snow supper on Saturday evening.
That weekend is also Vermont’s Annual Maple Open House Weekend and an opportunity to visit one or more “sugarhouses” throughout the state. Info: http://www.vermontmaple.org. We suggest you call first. Participating sugarhouses in Southern Vermont:
