We
were able to get away for two hours and decided to drive up to Wheelers
Sugar Camp in McDonalds Corners for lunch. This was my third time this
year. It was another enjoyable pancake meal. We then made a quick stop
at Balderson Cheese Factory. We were so involved with getting our meal
we forgot to take pics of the pancakes. Worth the drive out any time
of season.
Over the years production has also expanded and Wheelers Sugar Bush is now one of the largest producers in Ontario with over 15,000 trees tapped. Over 200 kilometres of pipeline is used to transport maple sap to the Sugar Camp where it is boiled into pure maple syrup. The latest in equipment and technology is used to produce maple products that meet the high quality standards that Vernon expects of every litre of maple syrup that carries the Wheelers label. |
