About Us

The Maple Hill Farm – Ferme côte d’érables Inc.’s story begins quite some time ago. The 35-acre property on which our farm sits has been a hub for social gatherings and community life since the early 20th century.  It is an important local landmark, known in our area as the “Despatie Maple Farm – La ferme Despatie”.  It is a particularly meaningful place for Northern-Ontarians who, for decades, have come to celebrate the arrival of spring and enjoy the land’s first harvest of the year – pure maple syrup !

The site is unique to our community and is situated about 20 minutes from Sudbury’s downtown core.
