In this episode of Saint Johnsbury Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram’s Outdoor Edge, we’re celebrating one of Vermont’s most iconic and cherished traditions—maple sugaring! We’re joined by Ruth and Jean Goodrich of Goodrich Maple Farm in Cabot, Vermont, a multi-generational sugaring operation with deep roots and even deeper flavor.
With Vermont’s Maple Open House Weekend just days away, Ruth and Jean share the ins and outs of sugaring season—from tapping trees and boiling sap to bottling that pure golden syrup we all love. They discuss how the industry has changed, the science behind the process, and what makes Vermont maple syrup so world-renowned.
Whether you’re a longtime sugarhouse visitor or simply curious about where your syrup comes from, this episode is packed with sweet stories, family tradition, and fascinating facts.
We also check in with Gary Moore for his Thoughts on the Outdoors as he reflects on bear activity this time of year and the beauty of fishing season just around the corner.
