Hutchinson Maple Syrup

Hutchinson Maple Syrup is a family owned and operated maple syrup farm. Orval, Doug, and Michele, with the help of their family, turn the maple sap that flows from their hardwood maple bush into sweet maple syrup to share with you! In 1974 Orval Hutchinson began producing maple syrup in Oro, Ontario, using cast irons pots with only 200 taps. From 1975 to 1988, Orval with the help of his family and son, Doug, expanded to 800 taps, and moved his operation into a Sugar Shack with a wood-fired evaporator. Fast forward 23 years later, when Doug and his wife, Michele, purchased a sugarbush on the 5th Line North of Oro-Medonte, it wasn’t long until the evaporator was once again fired up. In 2012, Orval, Doug, and Michele, began making maple syrup as a “hobby”. Because they love to share their sweet maple syrup with everyone, Hutchinson Maple Syrup has grown from 300 taps flowing into buckets, to now over 1600 taps with the maple sap flowing through a high vacuum system right into our new Sugarshack.
