Indiana is home to all types of farms, from produce and dairy farms to honey farms. One special type of farm you’ll find in the Hoosier state is the LM Sugarbush, a family owned maple syrup farm that’s home to one of the sweetest festivals in the state: the annual Maple Syrup Festival.
Located in the small town of Salem, the LM Sugarbush farm is a stunning natural retreat filled with beauty any time of year. But once a year, for two weekends in a row, this farm opens its gates to host the annual Maple Syrup Festival in Indiana.
LM Sugarbush sells delicious and locally gathered maple syrup year round in a variety of different sizes. Once a year, the farm showcases their prized maple syrup during this epic festival on sweets, pancakes, and buttery waflles.
