Open daily to visitors year-round. Free sugar house tours and tasting, multimedia displays in a real woodshed theater, a nature trail, country store, and an outdoor Vermont farm life museum make up the Morse Farm experience, and sprinkled throughout, are whimsical carved folklife characters created by Burr Morse.

"I grew up with a chain saw in my hands. Through the years, I have found many interesting shapes in the trees while cutting sugar wood. They now stand around our sugar house as works of folk art. People sometimes call me an artist but I say... I'm no artist, I'm just darned good with a chain saw!"

Burr Morse

The Morse Farm Woodshed Theater is a unique structure made with walls of sugar wood. Inside, a humorous and educational video plays about the Morse Farm maple process. It is narrated by Harry I. Morse, Sr., the crusty sixth generation Morse sugar maker and father to Burr. While in the theater, relax on our maple stump seats, enjoy the show and look at the artifacts. If you look close, you will find our example of dogwood among the other labeled sugar woods. Folks always leave with a smile.

Winter means skiing, sliding, snowmobiling and skating and stopping by the Morse's for Vermont breakfast fixin's and delicious natural snacks to enjoy around the fire.

Then in March it's Sugarin' Time when the Sugar House is surrounded by a cloud of steam and visitors line up for their annual taste of sugar on snow (hot maple sugar turned to taffy when drizzled over shaved ice, served with a fresh donut).

Summer brings many visitors to Vermont and Morse Farm goes all out hosting special craft and antique fairs, and our farm stand offers the best of the region's fruits and vegetables.

The Foliage Season lasts from about Sept. 20th until Columbus Day in our area, and the views of the autumn splendor from the Morse's hillside are spectacular. Enjoy a real maple creemie and walk along our nature trail to get the full effect.
