Sugar Bush Ottawa
Maple Syrup Farm
Visiting a sugar bush has been a springtime activity in our area for generations.
Several farms and maple syrup operations in Ontario and Quebec offer tours and programming for kids and families.
The sap starts flowing as soon as the weather warms up, usually in late February or early March.
(The cold weather the last week of February may delay fresh maple syrup production for some.)
As one local sugar bush puts it: "nothing says Canada quite like mmm....maple!"
