Kingdom Maple Festival

The town of St. Johnsbury stakes its claim to the title “Maple Center of the World” during the Kingdom Maple Festival, a daylong celebration of all things sweet and sticky. Attendees of all ages satisfy their sweet tooth at a pancake breakfast, stock up on treats at a maple-themed bake and yard sale, browse the stalls at a sugary street fair, and shop at the last indoor farmers market of the year. For a fee, curious townsfolk hop on the maple history tour bus with industry expert Matthew Thomas and learn how the Cary and Maple Grove companies became titans of the sugaring business.
