Sapsquatch is a family-run small business. We work hard to supply our
community with high quality sustainably produced maple syrup. Syrup
production is hard on the body and the spirit, demanding many
sleepless nights during the boiling season and many months of syrup
sales in order to break even. Small-scale producers have an extremely
difficult time competing with “the big boys”, semi-automated
commercial operations with 4000 taps or more and hundreds of thousands
invested in infrastructure and equipment.
We at Sapsquatch have a vision of staying on the smaller scale, using
traditional methods of production, nurturing a small family business
while offering an educational and tourism destination to the public.
Please consider becoming a member this year and help us meet our goals
for the next 5 years:
Finish the sugarshack with walls, tanks storage and wood storage.
Increase production to 150 gallons per year by purchasing a
new evaporator, more tanks, lines, 4x4 pick up truck with tank, second
sap pump
Build a working kitchen and bunks at the sugarshack
Offer yearly apprentice position, educational classes and tours
Any contribution above $50 will earn you member status, syrup
discounts, free admission to all of our special events, subscription
to our newsletter and a personalized guided tour for you and your
family along with some tasty local food. Working memberships are also
available. For inquiries contact Josh at sapsquatch7@gmail.com
