Thurman Maple Days 2026 Continues With Mid-Season Maple Magic

Peak sap season delivers bold flavors.

Toad Hill Farm, one of several maple farms in Thurman, NY.

Mid-March often brings prime sugaring conditions in the Adirondacks — freezing nights, mild days, and sap that flows generously.

During the second weekend of Thurman Maple Days 2026 (March 21–22), visitors can experience maple production at full throttle in Thurman.

Steam pours from sugarhouse vents. Evaporators roar. And syrup deepens in flavor as the season progresses.

Explore farm-to-table maple traditions.

Food lovers searching for authentic Adirondack farm experiences will find them here.

Stops include:

• Toad Hill Maple Farm

• Valley Road Maple Farm

• Candy Mountain Maple

• Hidden Hollow Maple Farm

• Martin’s Lumber

• The Kemp Animal Sanctuary at Nettle Meadow

We use only 100% pure Adirondack maple syrup on our flapjacks.

Guests can compare syrup grades, sample maple cream and candy, and learn how producers balance tradition with modern equipment.

Many farms serve maple-infused dishes that showcase syrup beyond breakfast. Think glazes, chili, baked goods, and inventive sweet-savory pairings.

Family fun in mud season.

March can feel like an in-between month in the Adirondacks. Thurman Maple Days fills that gap beautifully.

Families can enjoy hay rides, scavenger hunts, craft vendors at the Maple Craft Fair, and educational demonstrations that bring agricultural heritage to life.

It’s accessible, scenic, and refreshingly local — no lift ticket required.

Make a day of it.

Visitors can build a custom maple route, pairing sugarhouse stops with scenic drives through the Adirondack foothills.

For maps, schedules, and updates, visit the event website and follow Thurman Maple Days on Facebook.

Mid-season often offers the most active boiling days — which means more steam, more samples, and more stories.

Be sure to stop by Nettle Meadow Farm to greet the goats, and experience some of the best cheese in America.
