This March our trees will be tapped, sap gathered and boiled, pancakes and sausage cooked, and coffee brewed for thousands more people who for over 67 years have made this a yearly tradition. The Burton Log Cabin* will be making maple syrup and maple candy, a tradition in the area which dates back for centuries. An Antique and Craft Show will be in full swing at the High School where Beaches & Dreams Travel Co. will be waiting to see you. The Burton Public Library will host book sales and Century Village Museum will bustle with activity. Local antiques stores and shops stocked with new ideas for spring are ready for visitors. But don’t despair... you can still have unique & delicious pancakes even after the season ends. All year our local restaurants serve a variety of pancake selections and they all use pure maple syrup!
