Turtle Lane Maple Farm will be open April 16, 2010 for North Andover Foursquare day

On April 16th, North Andover is celebrating Foursquare Day with various businesses rolling out the red carpet for users of the smartphone application Foursquare.

The sugar house will be open on Friday from 11a - 3pm.

We will have...

  • Maple syrup, in all grades, in all sizes
  • Maple Cream, 3 sizes
  • Maple Candy
  • Maple sugar, 3 sizes
Will will have free samples for all visitors. And we will be sampling the ever popular Maple Bacon Ice Cream from Mad Maggie's.

We are also running a special promotion for that day. Checkin using Forusquare and get a free 3 piece candy on any order of $10 or more.  

To make it more fun, we are participating in the Foursquare Crawl, and our happy hour is at 1:00pm.  This is your greatest chance to acquire a "Swarm Badge" at Turtle Lane Maple Farm, where 50+ people checkin at the same time at the same place.  Should be a good time.

So come join us, checkin, and have fun!

 

 

Preparing for the holidays

Although the sugaring season is long been over for 2009, we have still been busy. There seems to be no end of cleaning, wood chopping and more cleaning. Throw in some re-bottling, candy and cream making for good measure, followed up by more cleaning.

As is the tradition of Turtle Lane Maple Farm, we will be making Holiday Baskets again this year. This weekend we re-bottled syrup from bulk containers which we filled back in March during season, into glass maple bottles which make beautiful gifts. Over the next couple days we will be making maple cream and maple candy. Then during the weekend after Thanksgiving (we hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!) we will be assembling the baskets.

And don’t forget, if you are giving gifts and want to give something with a local flavor, our bottles of pure local maple syrup make an extra special gift.
