Join us for our 2019 Information Day and Annual General Meeting.

This annual meeting allows maple syrup producers from across Lanark & District to come together to learn, network, and share tips & tricks before the season begins. The annual meeting takes place just before lunch. A traditional hot roast beef lunch, prepared by a local caterer, is served.
