Genesee Tourism: It's Maple Time in Genesee County

Did you know that New York State is home to the largest resource of tappable maple trees in the United States?
New York State Maple Weekends provide a chance for the public to visit farms to learn about the maple sugar-making processes and traditions, and to provide a chance to taste pure maple syrup in its many forms – right from the source. Visit one of the over 2,000 maple sugar makers in New York State this Maple Weekend.
This event, organized and sponsored by the New York State Maple Producers’ Association, will be held on March 22, 23 & 29, 30, 2025.
We hope you'll enjoy the taste of the season by visiting our local maple producers this month!
