Sugarhouses across the state will open their doors and welcome visitors March 25-26 for the 40th Maine Maple Sunday Weekend.

The event, sponsored by the Maine Maple Producers Association, will include maple-tasting, rides, games, sugarbush tours, music, sweet treats and more.

“Maple Sunday is our favorite weekend of the year,” said Lyle Merrifield, president of the MMPA. “This year, more than 100 members of the association are participating from Aroostook to York County. Community members love to come out of hibernation and celebrate the first signs of spring while enjoying all things maple.”

The MMPA represents more than 200 of the 520 producers licensed to sell maple products in Maine. A full list of those participating in Maine Maple Sunday Weekend can be found at mainemapleproducers.com.
