For most fans of maple syrup history, the idea of having your own maple museum would be nothing more than a pipe dream. Well dream no more. For the right buyer, the New England Maple Museum in Pittsford, Vermont can be yours, as reported in the December 4th edition of the Rutland Herald.
Yep, a ready-made maple museum, complete with a wide array of artifacts, maple history exhibits, and extensive gift shop is currently on the market. Unfortunately, unexpected serious health issues have led the owners Mike and Mary Blanchard to their decision to sell the museum started by their friends Tom and Dona Olson 41 years ago.
We wish the Blanchards well in dealing with their health concerns and hope that a good match can be found to keep the museum open and sharing the maple history story.
