Here’s a Full List of All the Sugarhouses You Can Visit for Maine Maple Sunday Weekend

Who doesn't love a good Maine Maple Sunday every year? It traditionally symbolizes the beginning of spring, and it's just something different to do with the fam or friends on the weekend. When I first moved to Maine seven years ago, I had no idea what a "sugarhouse" was, yet everybody was talking about it. So let's start there.

What is a sugarhouse?

"A maple sugar house is a specialized building where sap from the sugar maple tree (acer saccharum) was collected, boiled down, and formed into either maple sugar or maple syrup," according to phmc.state.

"Most sugarhouses offer maple syrup samples and demonstrations on how pure Maine maple syrup is made. Many farms offer games, activities, treats, sugarbush tours, music, and so much more," according to Mainemapleproducers.com.

Now that we understand them better, there are hundreds scattered throughout Maine that you can visit this Sunday, March 24, 2024. This year marks the 41st annual Maine Maple Sunday, and for some farms, the event will run the entire weekend, not just Sunday.

Here are just few farms I happen to know of that will be hosting fun family activities for the entire weekend.

This farm actually has events going on this entire week all the way up until Sunday!
