Nova Maple Syrup is family produced in Northwest Pennsylvania, sustainably harvested from our own hardwood forests. We pride ourselves on making the best syrup possible, and are confident you'll enjoy eating it as much as we enjoy making it! Use it on sweets, meats, and breakfast treats.
After our last pole barn we promised we wouldn’t add any more buildings, so instead we built a lean-to along the side of our warehouse. It provides covered outdoor parking for our truck, freeing up valuable space inside.
Summer is also the perfect time to catch up on maintenance and tackle smaller projects. This year, we gave all of our aging wooden doors/windows a fresh coat of paint, helping them look great while protecting them for years to come.
People often ask what we do during the nine months of the year when we’re not making maple syrup. While there’s always a long list of maintenance projects, repairs, and improvements to tackle, the majority of our time is spent building inventory for the busy seasons ahead.
To keep up with demand, we process the equivalent of two 40-gallon drums of maple syrup every day. That syrup is transformed into finished products including jugs of syrup, maple sugar, maple cream, and maple candies.
Most of these products are shipped directly to Amazon fulfillment centers, while about 25% stays here in our refrigerated storage so we can fulfill orders ourselves and keep our shelves stocked during the holiday season and spring sap season.
Below are a few photos from one of our gallon production weeks. Each pallet holds 30 boxes, with four one-gallon jugs per box—that’s 120 gallons of maple syrup per pallet. In total, these pallets represent 1,200 gallons of maple syrup, packaged and ready to head out to customers!
If you’ve ordered an 8oz candy in the past few months, you might have noticed a change in the packaging. It’s hard to believe we’ve been using the original one-piece corrugated boxes for a decade, but it’s finally time for an updated container. Our new two-piece boxes are accompanied by a plastic tray with individual candy slots and a paper-based padding layer. We’ve finally just run out of old one-pound boxes, it will take a month to fully transition to the new boxes. We still have several rolls of labels left, we’ll investigate screen printing the tops once they run out. Check out the gallery below for pictures and a link to the updated product page.
