Nothing says “Spring is Here!” like the smell of boiling Ontario maple syrup! We produce the best tasting, pure Ontario maple syrup from the rocky hills of Tay Valley Township. The Ennis Family has been farming on the eastern shores of Bennett Lake in Lanark County, Ontario since the 1860s. A lot has changed since our Irish ancestors immigrated but the honest, hard-working attitude remains the same! We now have approximately 4,500 taps connected to over 30 km of tubing on vacuum and a 3-post Reverse Osmosis machine but we are still ALL WOOD FIRED -The Old Fashioned Way! Marty & Andy, with a lot of help from our family and friends, are the 4th generation in the Ennis family to make maple syrup on the property over the past century.

Grades of Maple Syrup
We generally have all grades of 100% Pure Ontario Maple Syrup available. Recently, grading of maple syrup was standardized across the maple syrup producing provinces and states. The old naming of Extra Light, Light, Medium and Amber syrup have been replaced as noted below. The syrup has not changed – just the nomenclature with Medium being split between Amber-Rich and Dark-Robust. Most people choose Amber-Rich or Dark-Robust so if you’re not certain what you like it’s the best place to start. Remember that grading of syrup is based on colour (light transmittance) and the corresponding flavour and not sugar content. All maple syrup must contain a minimum of 66.0 Brix (roughly equivalent to % sugar). As a general rule, the lighter syrup is produced early in the season and the darkest syrup is produced at the end of the season.
