Maple Exhibit Opening

The Vermont Historical Society is pleased to announce the expansion of its Freedom & Unity exhibit at the Vermont History Museum in Montpelier: an examination of Vermont’s maple industry. This exhibit will explore the long history of maple syrup, its importance to the state’s economy, and how it has changed over the decades and will feature new panels that outline this history, interactives for visitors to examine, and a replica maple tree produced by Arcana Workshop of South Barre.  

This expansion was made possible by a number of generous sponsors: Butternut Mountain Farm Maple, The Skinny Pancake, Hunger Mountain Coop, Bragg Farm Sugarhouse and Gift Shop, and Capitol Grounds & 802 Coffee Roasters.  

To celebrate this new exhibit, the Vermont History Museum will hold an opening on October 9th at 3:00PM, featuring refreshments and remarks by Emma Martin of Butternut Maple Farm.
