Click on the map below for directions

SATURDAY April 6th, 2024 9am-5pm

FREE and Family Friendly! Visit a variety of Sugar Shacks on one Saturday in Northwest Wisconsin. You’ll see smaller operations cooking in a flat pan on a wood fire to larger producers using reverse osmosis as part of the process.   This is a self-guided tour throughout Maple Syrup producers in Northwest Wisconsin.

Annually on the
FIRST WEEKEND in April!

AMERY, WI: Come join us in celebrating the Maple Sap Harvest! Free and Family Friendly!

You can tour the Sugar Shack and processing area. We have a natural gas fired evaporator where we fully cook the sap and do not use reverse osmosis.

You can tour the Sugar Bush and see the 3/16″ tubing collection system with approx 1000 taps and you can help collect sap from approximately 200 bags, while enjoying walking on trails around the Sugar Bush.

Please wear appropriate clothing and footwear as this activity is weather dependent and trails may be muddy and weather cool.

The Z-Orchard Store will have fresh Maple Syrup, Maple Cream, Maple Sugar and Carmaplecorn. We also have a good supply of local Z-Orchard honey and Spun Honey along with Grandpa’s Wooden Toys and other gift ideas.

LUCK, WI: David Richter tapped his first tree over 40 years ago as a teenager. Since then, the family-owned business, Richter Maple, has grown dramatically and utilizes the largest wood-fired maple syrup evaporator in the area. David and his late wife Julie were blessed with nine children (currently ranging from 25 years down to 6 years of age). Their daughter Margo (age 23) andson Grant (age 20) are intricately involved in the business, along with help from their younger siblings and David’s new bride, LaVonne.

In addition to tapping their own trees, Richter Maple processes sap collected by numerous maple sap producers in the area. The Richter family invites you to tour their sugar house and enjoy free samples of some family favorites; Richter’s syrup, maple sugar and maple cream also available for purchase.

LUCK, WI:  Morley’s Maple Syrup is located just 2 miles east of the Village of Luck, WI. John and Crystal tapped their first trees on their home site; starting with just 350 taps collected in pails just as it was done 100 years ago. Now today, with three special helpers; Samuel, Tanner and Lola, and other family and friends,they now have over 5,000 taps.

Sap is collected through plastic tubing criss-crossing the hills into a tank, where it is collected daily and taken to Morley’s sugar bush where they cook off the excess water in a stainless steel evaporator that is fueled by dry split wood.

Syrup, maple candy, and our famous maple cotton candy will be on hand for sampling and purchase.

We are using a combination of modern and old fashioned processing methods. 750 taps on vac, we run an RO and are boiling on a wood-fired evaporator. Buying some sap from neighbors as well. We will be selling syrup in glass and plastic in several sizes. Maple cream for sale also!

CUMBERLAND, WI:  Mike Rouzer and Ray Hibbs welcome everyone! We run around 1000 taps, 650 pails and 350 taps on high vacuum. We still cook our syrup in
two large flat pans, over fire. We do utilize a homemade RO machine, which helps us process our sap efficiently. Because of the way we cook
our syrup we will always produce a darker, more βlavorful, syrup. We always have maple syrup, maple cream, bourbon maple syrup and
maple syrup, maple candy, and our famous maple cotton candy will be on hand for sampling and purchase.
