We are going biking tomorrow (10/5) on a rail trail (Ansonia) near
Wellsboro, PA "The Pennsylvania Grand Canyon". We will be coming from the
east on Route 6. I understand maple syrup is produced in that region and
would like to find darker/more interesting types. I Googled and found a list
of producers and they are all just names with rural PO box addresses and no
phone numbers.

So I am looking to find actual places where we can buy syrup along or near
our route.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

You might find excellent suggestions, as well as good directions by
stopping into most any eatery source catering to the locals there along
your way.

You'd probably do much better *price-wise* shopping your maple syrup off the
net (regardless from which state), have it shipped home and enjoy your trip
burden-free (I doubt you'd want to pedal the extra weight of a gallon)... if
you happen to came across a good deal along your trek, fine, but if not no
matter.

Good suggestion but we are driving to the area to ride on a 40+ mile
railtrail so I thought we might be able to find a local place and stop in as
we were driving by. You may be right about price. Frequently all you find
are the tourist trap stores but I am hoping someone may suggest a "hidden
treasure".

Have a great trek out at the canyon tomorrow! Wellsboro is my
hometown, and my husband and I were married at an overlook at the
canyon. The leaves should be changing right about now, and it should
be really pretty out there.

One of the last times I was at the Leonard Harrison side of the
canyon, some people were selling maple syrup right near the parking
lot. Don't know how often they sell it there, though. My dad (who
lives in Mansfield) sent me a jug of "Pure Pennsylvania Maple Syrup"
last winter, produced in Westfield, PA. I know that Westfield isn't
really that close to the canyon, but let me know if you want the
contact info. for the producer anyway.
