Doug used to joke with me for years saying he wanted to pack up and move to Vermont and tap maple syrup. And here we were...in Vermont heading to a cheese and maple syrup farm. It was kind of surreal.
We were on our way from the apple orchard...
We arrived at this cute farmhouse on a beautiful piece of property - Sugarbush (Cheese and Maple Syrup) Farm...
We stopped in the little white house first in order to taste some cheese and maple syrup...
Seriously - it is some of the best cheese and maple syrup I have ever tasted. AMAZING.
The store was attached to the tasting area, but we decided to take a little tour of the farm first and then returned to the store on the way out.
Heading to the little outbuilding with the information about maple syrup farming...
The outbuilding (Sugar House)...
This is where there was a short video about how maple syrup is farmed. There was a lot information lining the walls (it was like a small, rustic barn museum) and some of the equipment is housed there too...
When you step out of that building, the view around the farm is beautiful...
We then headed into the store to buy some goodies...
We bought some of these...
So good!
After buying our goodies and learning all about cheese and syrup, it was time to move on to our next destination. Doug had been talking about visiting a really cool glass store that he read about online. Now, I was thinking it would be a small glass store like you see in lots of small towns that sell glass trinkets. I was very wrong - this glass store was next level. All about Simon Pearce next...
