Hosted in partnership with the Rotary Club of Barrie, the Spring Tonic Maple Syrup Festival at the Tiffin Conservation Area is a tradition spanning more than three decades.
Visitors will journey back in time to discover how maple syrup was made in the past, then return to the present to see how it’s crafted today. Complete your tour with a delicious pancake and sausage breakfast topped with fresh maple syrup from 9 am – 2 pm.
Most activities are included with admission, and Tiffin maple syrup will be available for purchase on-site. All proceeds support Rotary’s community initiatives and the maintenance of NVCA’s conservation areas.
Special thanks to Brad’s Tree Service for supporting this event at the Golden Syrup Sponsorship level!
