Making maple syrup is a 4th generation family tradition for the LaFever’s. Come for a visit and see how the sap gravity feeds to the sugar house, watch the steam rise off the evaporator, and look at the finished product being canned. They produce maple candy, cream and many other maple products using their 100% pure maple syrup.
They have over 500 apple trees with over 25 varieties including Mac, Macoun, Honeycrisp, Gala, Sweet 16, Liberty and Wellington to name a few. At their Fall Festival, open weekends September 13th – October 11th 2025 10 AM-4 PM, children and young at heart can enjoy many activities such as pumpkin and apple picking, hiking, gold and gem mining, roping, pony driving and riding, tractor & horse drawn wagon rides, goat petting & many photo opps. Good eats are in the sugar house store.
On the Fall Festival weekends the sugar house, pumpkin and U-Pick apple orchard are open, 10 AM-4 PM from September 12 to October 12th, 2026.
