Maple syrup is a sweet gift of Mother Nature. It has become an integral part of our North American heritage.

Every spring, Nova Scotia maple producers journey into their sugar woods to collect maple sap, a clear-like liquid. It is like fresh spring water, with barely a taste. As the sap is boiled, it begins to take on its distinctive maple flavour.

Currently, there are over 70 maple producers in Nova Scotia with the total number of taps over 300,000.

This represents ten percent of the 36,000 acres of good producing maple sugar trees in the province.

Many people prefer the dark syrup for baking because of the stronger maple flavour.
