Our Sugarhouse
Built in 2005, we began making maple syrup here in 2006. Previously, The Case family made syrup for over 30 years at "Arlow's Sugar Shack" in Granby, CT. Sweet Wind Farm's new sugarhouse has modern equipment to produce quality maple syrup and other maple products such as sugar candy, lollipops, jelly, and cream. We offer educational tours and classes to groups , or you may visit during our "Open House" times when we are boiling for a free visit. Maple syrup is sold in all size containers from 3 oz. jugs to gallons, and we sell wholesale to those who buy in quantity. Maple products are sold year 'round at our farm. Visit us during our Maple Festival held annually on the second Saturday in March.
Our Farmstand We operate a seasonal farmstand from July through November, offering our own fresh vegetables, fruit, flowers, herbs and more. From tomatoes to squash, cucumbers to pumpkins, and lots more, we grow without chemical sprays and believe that homegrown tastes best! Call ahead for fresh picked flowers, or you may pick your own. Check out the "What's Available" page for the latest list of what you can find here at our farm. NOTICE to our customers: please be prepared to use cash or check at our farm when you visit. We can take your credit card if we are available to process the transaction with our card swiper and a with a $20 minimum.
Pick-Your-Own
Pick Your Own will be very limited this year due to the small amount we grow and the fact that we take most of it to the farmers' markets we attend (listed below). Please call ahead to see if we are offering PYO blueberries, which we will have on some Saturdays from July through September.
