About Puffenbarger's Sugar Orchard
We are a family owned farm. We raise beef cattle and have a maple sugar orchard. Puffenbarger's Sugar Orchard is located 5 miles west of Monterey, Virginia overlooking the Blue Grass Valley. Turn right on Maple Sugar Road and travel 3 1/2 miles. We are located on the right! General Information Owned and operated by Doug Puffenbarger, son of the deceased, Ivan Puffenbarger. Our family carries on its sugar-making heritage by bottling pure Virginia maple.. syrup from the same sugarbush our grandfather tapped for so many years. We extend an invitation to visit our sugar camp during the Highland County Maple Festival the 2nd and 3rd week-ends in March. Weather permitting, you can see the processing of "sugar water" or "sap" by using a vaccum gathering system, a reverse osmosis machine, and an oil-fired evaporator. Depending on the sugar content, it usually takes about 50 gallons or more of sap to make one gallon of syrup. Ideal condtions for making syrup are a combination of nighttime temperatures in the 20's and daytime temperatures beween 40 and 50 degrees. The syrup and sugar season ends by the the last week in March. We usually have syrup year around and will ship in plastic containers to any point.
