Sugar Bush Tour: Welcome Spring!
**Join us for a delightful Sugar Bush Tour,
kicking off at the St. Jacobs Farmer’s Market with a short video about
the Old Order Mennonites, showcasing their culture and lifestyle. You’ll
then board the bus for a scenic ride through Woolwich
Township’s beautiful farming landscape. Our tour guide will share
insights about the community and what makes this area a great place to
live, shop, and work. At the sugar bush, meet Norman and Bernadine Horst

generations. Norman will explain their unique maple syrup process and
