Maple Sugaring Days

Join Coggeshall Farm Museum for our annual Maple Sugaring tradition. Explore the farm and see the process of maple sugaring from start to finish. See the tapping of the trees at Coggeshall. Guests will see the process of carving spiles, collecting sap, and sugaring down the sap to remove the water. There will also be scavenger hunts, a maple craft, and kids games. Finish off your visit to our historic farmhouse to view the final stage in the process from sap to maple sugar. This will be a fun day at the farm, where you will learn more about the history of maple sugar in the region and the connections to land usage, trade, and early abolitionist movements.
Set on 48 acres of coastal farmland in Bristol, Rhode Island, Coggeshall Farm recreates the daily experience of tenant farmers on a salt marsh farm in the late 18th century. With a new, innovative partnership with Old Sturbridge Village, Coggeshall will expand and enhance the visitor experience through live interpretation, new programming, historic structures, heirloom plants and gardens, and heritage-breed animals.
