2023 Taylor County Lions Maple Fest

With the Sugar Maple being the Wisconsin State Tree, the celebration will focus on attributes of the Maple tree, which include Maple syrup production, Maple flavored food products, wood crafts, tourism and green space beautification. Maple syrup judging, cooking with pure Maple syrup and Maple syrup tapping techniques are just a few of the day's events. The Chequamegon National Forest abounds with Sugar Maples and Taylor County is home to many "Sugar Shacks" that process Maple syrup.

Crafters will be present with many of their items featuring products from the Sugar Maple. There will be a Maple syrup judging contest and a cooking demonstration showcasing products using Maple flavoring. There will also be demonstrations on tapping Maple trees and dealers displaying items to get you started in tapping your own Maple trees.
