Chandler's Sugar Shack in rural northern Washington County started in 2011 with 100 traditional buckets hanging on trees. The family operation now taps over 4,000 trees a year, and every batch is still boiled and finished by hand on a wood-fired evaporator.

Their pure Maine maple syrup sells through the online store and at local grocery stores, gift shops, and convenience stores around the region.
