We are always happy to share our love and knowledge of maple syrup production. Watch this page for postings about various events that may be of interest to you. Throughout the year we will post information about upcoming Minnesota events, which are open to the public. For our MMSPA members we post information about our Spring and Fall member meetings. We also show the dates and locations for the annual NAMSC/ISMI International Conference.
