HARLOW’S SUGAR HOUSE
Putney, VT
 
Today we are off on a relaxing adventure to chase away the winter doldrums.   Our first stop is at Yankee Candle Village in South Deerfield, MA.   Stroll through the Bavarian Christmas Village and see the Nutcracker Castle in the Black Forest.   Santa Claus will be waiting in his workshop to chat with you.   Purchase any of the thousands of candles and you can make your own wax souvenir.   Then we travel to Bernardston, MA for a delicious lunch at The Farm Table, where the essence of New England’s charm is part of the dining experience.   The highlight of our excursion is learning how maple syrup is made at Harlow’s Sugar House in Putney, VT.   We’ll view the process as sap is boiled down to make all things maple.   Maple delicacies can be purchased to be enjoyed there or brought home.   A perfect way to spend a late winter’s day in New England!
