Dutch Hill Maple

Family owned and operated Maple Syrup farm located in Tully, NY. Once upon a time in a small little town, a young man became interested in making maple syrup.
(50)

At the time, he was attending a Tully Ag & FFA class. The teacher happened to have a sugarbush in Lafayette, where the young man would help empty sap buckets. From there, his interest grew. He decided to try his own hand at making syrup and tapped a handful of trees in his parents’ backyard. He carefully hung a bucket on each one and waited for the sap to run. He boiled the sap and made his very o

wn syrup (we even have the first boiling pan hanging in our sugarhouse!). Turns out, once you start making syrup, you get this thing called “maple fever” and well, he never let another year go past without making more. That young man was Dave Williams, of Dutch Hill Road. Dave eventually built his first sugarhouse, which still stands in the woods behind what used to be his parents’ house. Some of you may have even seen it on tours
past. Imagine a hard winter, where your only way into the sugarhouse was by snowshoe…

The years passed and Dave had a couple of young men of his own. As a family, they continued the tradition of making syrup year after year. Each season, the sap tanks got bigger and bigger and the boys grew taller and taller. The younger generation graduated school and moved on with their own interests. But March would still bring them all back to the sugarhouse. It was about this time that someone else entered the picture – a young lady. She’d hang out a bit at the sugarhouse and ride along on sap runs with the boys. She was a local girl, with absolutely no knowledge of maple syrup. It must’ve been the syrup though (oh, and one of the boys ) that made her stick around…because she just never left. In 2013, the youngest boy and the young lady were married. Nate and Cristy were living in “the city” doing what young kids do (really, I have no idea what this was – going to the movies?). Christmases would come and go and each year, all they wanted was to move back out to the country of Tully, NY. To be back in the great wide open and believe it or not, closer to the family maple operation. In 2014, after a rollercoaster of “yes, no and maybes”, they were able to secure a piece of land on Woodmancy Rd. This was the first official step of the second generation working to grow and carry on the business Dave had started way back when (and works very hard to continue to this day). They walked the land. They ordered maple supplies. They went to work. They probably asked “what did we get ourselves into” and pulled out their hair a couple of times. But maple season came, as it always does, and the first official syrup from our Woodmancy Woods was born. They still have a bottle of that first syrup in their cupboard, for old times sake. Once the season was finished. they bottled lots of bottles and looking at them all in a moment of panic, exclaimed, “how are we going to sell all of this?!” But somehow, they did. Having a little (lot) “maple fever” of his own, Nate worked hard to expand just about every year since. They were eternally blessed with a “meant to be” moment (that took five VERY long months of paperwork) in which they were able to purchase that house in the country the had always dreamed of, with acres of literal untapped potential. This expansion (along with the others) brought them to about 7,500 trees. They watched the family business grow with each and every tap. More and more syrup was made. But people wanted maple candy. So they made candy (disastrously, at first). Then people wanted granulated sugar. So they made sugar (disastrously, at first). Then it was cream. Then seasoning. Then BBQ sauce. And more. Because they hated to be bored. As their line of products grew, so did their family. A little girl and a little boy. Their pride and joy. The third generation is now learning and helping in their own way. Of course, maybe they’ll be a police officer (like Dad wanted to be when he grew up) or a zookeeper (like Mom wanted to be – really). But maybe, just maybe…that sticky syrup will bring them right back home each season. And maybe, just maybe we’re building something sweet for them to add to their own stories. But no boys or girls hanging around the sugarhouse until they’re at least thirty. To order any of our maple products, please visit our website at www.dutchhillmaple.com/shop.

Mid-Fundraiser Update: We're at about 89% of our fundraising goal for Upstate Golisano Children's Hospital!! 🙌

With 6 days left, we should (hopefully) be able to match last year's donation of $𝟔𝟓𝟎 and even add a bit more.

The following snippet of conversation is something we shared a couple of years ago, but it really touched us then and still does today, so we wanted to share again:

"I just read your most current email and saw you were donating to Golisano...it's where we've been 3 times In the last year with (their child's) hospital stays, a total of about 6 weeks I slept in those rooms and had my (child) cared for by the nurses, and had interactions with many doctors and staff and I think they are all pretty awesome. So thank you from a parent who has benefited from every little bit that is donated, you allow a difference to be made with our kids."

We will continue to donate a portion of all online sales leading up to Thanksgiving (through 11/27). With each purchase, you're touching the lives of very real people like the parent above. You're making a difference. Let's do this for the families that need a little extra light in their lives this holiday season. Let's remind them that they're not alone. 💪❤️

Hi everyone!! 👋

We wanted to check in with an update on our fourth annual 𝑮𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒃𝒂𝒄𝒌 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝑮𝒐𝒍𝒊𝒔𝒂𝒏𝒐.

Here's a recap for anyone not sure what we're talking about: Now through Thanksgiving, we are donating a portion of all online sales to Upstate Golisano Children's Hospital. Last year, we were able to donate $650, which we hope to match this year. We would love if we could 𝒆𝒙𝒄𝒆𝒆𝒅 that amount. 🤞

In the first 48 hours of our fundraiser, we have already made it to 50% of our goal. With over a week left, we may be well on our way to surpassing the $650 donation mark!!

Thank you to everyone who has already placed an order this week. To anyone thinking about making a purchase through our website, now is a great time to do so. Not only will you be getting some amazing maple products (if we do say so 😉), you might even get some holiday shopping done AND you'll be helping others.

We thank you for your support. We appreciate you. ❤️

**Please note, we're working diligently to get orders out the door, but our turnaround time IS extended this time of year due to increased order volume.

We want to teach our kids that this time of year is not about 𝒓𝒆𝒄𝒆𝒊𝒗𝒊𝒏𝒈 but rather, it's the season of 𝒈𝒊𝒗𝒊𝒏𝒈. It's a time for paying it forward and helping others.

A handful of years ago, we sat down and tried to think of how we could relate that to a then three year old and one year old. Hmm...kids! We can help other kids!

We are SO excited to announce that as we lead up to Thanksgiving (11/17-11/27), we will be donating a portion of all online sales to Upstate Golisano Children's Hospital. Our fourth annual "𝑮𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒃𝒂𝒄𝒌 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝑮𝒐𝒍𝒊𝒔𝒂𝒏𝒐" will benefit the children and families who may not be able to come home for the holidays.

Last year, we were able to donate $𝟔𝟓𝟎. We hope to meet, or even better, 𝒆𝒙𝒄𝒆𝒆𝒅 that amount this year!

If you've been thinking of making a purchase with us, this is a great time to do so! Please 𝒉𝒆𝒍𝒑 𝒖𝒔 𝒉𝒆𝒍𝒑 𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒔 this holiday season! ❤

You've probably heard the story before. We started with a clean slate. Just a cornfield, nestled up against thousands of beautiful, untouched maple trees. We started with a distant dream. That dream became a goal. That goal became a plan. That plan became reality. And reality became a dream. We share images like this because they're very special to us. There was a time we sat and imagined what it'd be like to have this view. With time, dedication, and a LOT (like a LOT LOT) of hard work, it's here. Yesterday, we took delivery of these beautiful glass panels, which are the absolute pièce de résistance of our store area. 👌

It's amazing how much we can accomplish with the kids back to school. 😆 Boxing up about 850 lbs of syrup this morning 💪

Waking up with our favorite mug, full of hot coffee sweetened with our Bourbon Barrel Aged Maple Syrup. 😋 The perfect combo to kick off a busy day of getting orders out the door!! 🍁

Hello maple lovers!! 🍁 First, we just had to share one more behind the scenes look at yesterday's special event. #obsessed 😍 Second, everyone wants maple this week! Which is great - thank you!! We are doing our absolute best to get orders fulfilled as quickly as possible, but please note, we expect our turnaround time to be a bit delayed this week. We appreciate your patience. We are thankful for all of you!!

Today's agenda included lots of end of year teacher (and more) gifts. Looking for a great way to say "thank you for a sweet year"? Check out our school-inspired gift options at dutchhillmaple.com/gift-sets. 😎

We got a bit backed up, so delivery of the BtB favors will be early next week. Buttttt, we just wrapped up the first basket, and we are OBSESSED!!! 🙌 We had to share because they look absolutely amazing. We love, love, love this, and hope all of the recipients do, too! 😍 *This particular basket will be delivered to OCSO (it contains some favors with OCSO-specific messages), along with a second basket. SPD will receive two baskets as well. 🤗 💙

Today is the day! 🌚🌞 We're supposed to be in a pretty good area for viewing, so we're going to try to catch a peek of today's eclipse. Hopefully the clouds don't steal the show. 🤞 What are your eclipse plans??

Just casually walking the tubing. 🤭

You look like fun. 🙌 Meet our 𝑺𝒖𝒈𝒂𝒓 𝑹𝒖𝒔𝒉 𝑺𝒂𝒎𝒑𝒍𝒆𝒓, available this weekend at Maple Weekend at Dutch Hill Maplefor your tasting pleasure. 🍁 🍁 🍁 #maple #mapleweekend #maplesyrup #mapleseason #yum #newyork #sampler #taste #delicious #nature #foodie #smallbusiness #familybusiness #family #husbandandwife
