Sugar Bush 2023 | March 4^th – April 10^th, 2023

The Log Farm: 670 Cedarview Road

Come out to the farm to experience sugarbush 2023. This once a year Canadian tradition doesn’t last long as winter gently eases into spring. Take a wagon ride out to the sugarbush to see how maple syrup is made. Then take a walk through the trails of the sugar maples. Here at the log farm, we only use pails on our trees, so all our sap is collected by hand. We offer a special hands-on experience for our guests. You and your family can help gather the sap around the sugarbush. The kids love running from tree to tree looking for a pail with some sap in it! Please remember that the sap flow is completely weather dependent, +5 degrees and sunny are the best days to collect.

The band emerged in the early 80’s as a countrified rock band in the era of hair metal and glossy pop. Despite sticking out like a sore thumb (or maybe because of it), their single “Try” became omni-present on radio across Canada and set in motion a three decade long career of headlining every club, theatre and arena in Canada.
