A sugar bush tour for one person or a family of four
Some family activities are memorable for the wrong reasons - like when an uncle gets trapped in the zoo's monkey pen - and some aren't remembered at all, like the time everyone got concussions after a visit to the batting cage. Make family time unforgettable with today's WagJag for admission to Richardson's Farm and Market:
-
$4 for a sugar bush tour for 1 person (a $7.50 value)
-
$15 for a family sugar bush tour for 4 people and a small bottle of maple syrup (a $35 value)
This family-owned farm on land on the south side of the Grand River has been in operation for six generations. They offer family-friendly activities and fresh produce from their own fields as well as other local farms. The sugar bush tour includes a wagon ride to the bush, a guided tour of the sap collection, an explanation about the evaporator and how they boil the sap which eventually turns into syrup. For those who purchase the family pass, you'll also receive a small bottle of maple syrup to take home with you. If you have a sweet tooth includes more than maple syrup, check out the Richardson's store which sells their own brand of honey, jams, jellies, apple cider and more. After you've worked up your appetite, stick around for a special seasonal brunch available for purchase.
