Three Maples Sugar Camp

Harry B. Dennis has a large maple syrup operation, Three Maples Sugar Camp, on the Old Marmora Road between Marmora  and Madoc.  He has 1200 taps in several different maple woods in the area, all of which have gravity fed, pipe collection systems. He goes around with a truck with a tank on the back and a pump, and collects the sap from tanks in  each sugar bush.

The old sugar house burned down four years ago and the Dennis family built a new one. Inside is a state of the art, stainless steel, wood-fired evaporator.  He doesn't use revese osmosis to concentrate the sap before boiling.

He has  a demonstration area with a mini pipe line  near the sugar house. They make around 500 gallons, which they sells at the farm gate and wholesale. He plans to have a pancake house and is always willing to show people round.

Amazing Graze Alpacas

Amazing Graze Alpacas is located just north of Stirling off Highway 14.  We have been breeding alpacas since 2003 and continually strive to improve. As testament to our efforts, our award winning alpacas are producing award winning fleeces! Our primary focus is breeding stock but we also have a small selection of hobby/fibre/companion animals available - these animals are conformationally correct and viable fibre producers that don't quite meet our breeding program criteria.

Hastings County Museum of Agricultural Heritage

Come visit the past and think of the future at the Hastings County Museum of Agriclutral Heritage.

There is always a friendly welcome  from our friendly guides and you can pick up an audio wand and watch our vidoes as you go round. Recall the hazy, lazy days of summer in the apple orchard. Watch the bees in the bee hive as they come and go collecting honey. Savour the warmth of an old farmhouse and stop at the 1940os restaurant with an authenic juke box.
