Jan knew of Sugarbush Farm because she had been buying their cheeses for several years via mail order. Woodstock was only 45 minutes away from Cavendish and it’s a cute little town on its own. So it seemed like the perfect way to spend a day.
Getting to the farms was a charming and incredibly scenic drive. At many points along the way, we weren’t sure that we were on the right path. And then suddenly, a yellow sign with green text would reassure us that we were going in the right direction. My favorite sign is at the entrance, and declares, “You’ve either arrived at Sugarbush Farm or you’re lost!”
There were plenty of things to see and do, including hiking a short trail to see maple trees being tapped, having a cheese tasting and a maple syrup tasting, going through the sugar shack display that explains how maple syrup is made, shopping in the cute gift store, or just enjoying fresh air and Mother Nature.
