Tipton-Haynes Maple Syrup Festival and Pancake Breakfast

Have you ever wondered how maple syrup gets from the tree to your table? Did you know that it takes 10 gallons of sap to make a pint of syrup? This is your chance to learn all about it at the 23rd Annual Maple Syrup Festival and Pancake Breakfast! Come out to discover the history, lore, and method of making maple syrup. See how the sap is extracted from the maple trees located throughout the grounds of the site and then watch as the sap is boiled down over a wood fired furnace until it becomes the rich, flavorful maple syrup that you love so much.

From 8am to 11am, a pancake breakfast with delicious maple syrup from Maple Grove Farm of Afton, Tennessee, will allow visitors to enjoy the deliciousness of nature. Accompanying the pancakes will be bacon, sausage, grits, and more. Juice, coffee, and milk will also be available. Be sure to arrive early and let us feed you before watching our volunteers boil the sap into maple syrup. Seating will be limited inside but extra seating is furnished outside at the picnic area.

Members receive free admission - join today! Donations are welcomed and will go to help the site continue its mission values. Genuine maple syrup from Maple Grove Farm of Afton, Tennessee, will also be for sale.
