Editor’s note: we just received word that due to some unfortunate family circumstances, this charming little farm isn’t fully operational this year. We regret the inconvenience but do be sure to check it out in the future!
When the leaves start to change and the air gets frostier, it’s time to jump into all those wonderful fall activities that you’ve been looking forward to for weeks. If you want to start your autumn off right, try a visit to this charming maple farm in Massachusetts.
Warren Farm and Sugarhouse is a picturesque maple farm in North Brookfield.
A visit to this pretty spot is the perfect way to welcome fall. Warren Farm is tucked away in the woods of North Brookfield and offers plenty of natural beauty. They’re a real, old-fashioned maple farm and specialize in producing pure New England maple syrup and maple confections. The farm also grows pick-your-own fruits, vegetables, berries, and herbs.
You can learn how maple syrup is made and tour the farm.
If you visit during maple sugaring season (mid-February to the end of March), you’ll be able to take a tour of the farm’s maple syrup production facilities. You’ll learn how the farm’s maple trees are tapped the old-fashioned way and witness a live sap demonstration in their sugarhouse. You’ll also be treated to a free sap and syrup tasting, hot beverages, and a maple recipe booklet. Reservations are required for tours, so call ahead at (508) 867-0174.
You wouldn’t dream of leaving a maple farm without a few sugary treats, would you? No matter what time of year you visit, there’s plenty of maple goodness to be had in the farm’s shop. Indulge in goodies like maple-sugar coated pecans, cinnamon-infused maple syrup, pure maple sugar candy, and maple molé infused with chocolate and habaneros.
If your tastes tend towards savory, don’t miss the farm’s homemade savory oils, sauces, and baked goods. You can also pick up plants and seeds from the greenhouse that have been raised by hand using organic methods.
