National Maple Syrup Festival

By Carrie Lambert on March 12, 2015
Back

We just got back from a weekend of syrup-filled fun at the National Maple Syrup Festival in Brown County. IMG_8179This was Brown County’s first time to host the event and our entire visit was wonderful. I’m sure it had nothing to do with the maple flavored food I digested! IMG_2074 IMG_2077IMG_8235We spent quite a bit of time in town exploring Pioneer Village. Here they had puppet shows, art and food artisans and exhibits of what life was like for pioneers. IMG_8212 IMG_8213 IMG_8195 IMG_8193 IMG_8194Since we were there to take full advantage of all festival activities, we made sure to hit the library where there was cookie decorating.IMG_8186 IMG_8187 IMG_8188And my husband was quite excited about the “Moonshine” exhibit at the brand new Brown County History Center.IMG_8189 IMG_8191After that, we headed to the Brown County State Park …IMG_8196 IMG_8197We watched some French Colonial demonstrations …IMG_8199 IMG_8200We saw a Native American Encampment …IMG_8204And took part in an interpretive hike (it was pretty busy!) …IMG_8205Of course, one of my favorite activities in Brown County is the shopping!IMG_8175IMG_8232 IMG_8221My only regret is that we didn’t get to the Story Inn where the breakfast and dessert competitions were held. I guess next year!

More to come on my favorite meal stops and overnight accommodations … so stay tuned.
