The Potter/Tioga Maple Producers Association is encouraging people to visit multiple sugar shack because each maple product producer uses a unique process and offers a variety of products. According to the PTMPA, some farms use modern tubing and vacuum pump systems to harvest maple and others still hang buckets in trees. Each farm also has a specialty, and visitors on the maple trail can expect to find confections like maple cotton candy, cookies, milkshakes, jellies, barbeque sauces, salad dressings, and more.

The PTMPA’s map and list of participating locations with directions, hours, and contact information can be found below:
