Maple Syrup Festival at the A.W. Campbell Conservation Area
**CANCELLED – After careful consideration and discussion, the SCRCA has made the difficult decision to cancel our 2020 Maple Syrup Festival scheduled for March 21st and 22nd, amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
The health and safety of our staff, visitors and guests is of utmost importance. We would like to thank all those who have supported the Maple Syrup Festival over the years, particularly the Alvinston Firefighters Association.
We look forward to welcoming you next year to the A.W. Campbell Conservation Area for our 2021 event.**
The A.W. Campbell Maple Syrup Festival will be held on March 21 – 22, 2020 from 10:00am to 3:00pm. Interpretive staff will be on hand at the Festival to demonstrate the importance of this liquid gold in the lives of First Nations people and for pioneers. You can even learn how to tap a tree.
It takes cold frosty nights and bright sunny days for sap to flow from the trees. Weather cooperating, visitors may have an opportunity to taste sap straight from the tree. Hands-on displays will be available for visitors to experience the pioneer sugar bush lifestyle. After the demonstrations, there are beautiful trails to explore.
Remember to be prepared for the mud.
Admission to the Conservation Area is $5.00 per car.
The A.W. Campbell Conservation Area is located at 8477 Shiloh Line in Brooke-Alvinston. The Conservation Area is 3 km north-east of Alvinston off Nauvoo Road (County Road 79). For more information, contact the St. Clair Region Conservation Authority at 519-245‑3710.
The Alvinston Firefighters’ Association will be holding their traditional pancake and sausage meals at the nearby (5 min drive) Brooke-Alvinston-Inwood Community Centre (3310 Walnut St, Alvinston).
