We have lots of maple products available but are all out of syrup. Check in with us next February.

New York State Maple Syrup 
Made on the Shore of Saranac Lake 
in the Heart of the Adirondack Park

The spring of 2024 will be our eleventh full season of "commercial" production of maple syrup. (If you consider making 75-100 gallons commercial.) In the fall of 2012 we poured a pad and built, what is now known as, "Bushwhack Jack's Sugar Shack." We tubed the sugar bush in February of 2013  with 255 taps and had a wonderful "first" season. We now have 400 taps plus accept sap from friends and neighbors making it a community effort. We are enjoying making you the best maple syrup possible. We have limited maple products still available for 2023.

Why the Name Mark Twain?
Sam Clemens (Mark Twain) spent the summer of 1901 in Saranac Lake at what is now known as the Mark Twain Camp. It has been in our family since 1913 and we just thought it appropriate to name our maple syrup business in his honor. Our sugar shack is a short distance from the shore of Lower Saranac Lake and it isn't hard to imagine Mark Twain and his family enjoying their stay here in the Adirondacks.
