Our Very Dark Maple Syrup is sourced 100% from small family farms in southwestern Wisconsin. A variety of species of hardwood trees, including our maple trees, grow on the steep hillsides of the Ocooch Mountains that surround the beautiful Kickapoo River Valley.
These natural forests in Wisconsin are a healthy mix of many species of trees, unlike huge commercial maple plantations that are often planted in former wheat fields. Great care is taken in harvesting the sap to make the Maple Syrup, ensuring that the health of the tree is not compromised. Our syrup comes from farms that practice traditional agriculture and that are committed to the following:
No pesticides or chemicals were used to manage this forest. Our farmers do not use any chemical pesticides, herbicides or fertilizers to manage their forests.
Our syrup is also tested for the presence of glyphosate, the most common herbicide in the US, as an added assurance.
The Only Syrup I Buy
I try to purchase this syrup every time it goes on sale and keep several jars on hand for personal use as well as gift giving. It's the only syrup I have purchased in several years. I appreciate that all the Healthy Tradition products are checked for the presence of glyphosate. And besides being glyphosate free, it tastes GREAT! I'll keep purchasing this product as long as it remains available! - Anna R.
Dark and Rich, the best!
Make wonderful banana nut bread with it. Also use HT coconut oil as the oil in my recipe and the ancient grain flour from HT. - Margaret R.
Best Syrup I've Ever Had!
Not only is the taste out of this world, you can taste and FEEL the difference on your body compared to other maple syrups of lesser quality, by body doesn't feel as bogged down or sugar overloaded after consuming it. By far my favorite syrup! - Bree C.
The Best
We love your maple syrup. I try to always have an extra bottle on hand so we don't run out. Terrific on pancakes and my husband uses it on your Ancient Whole Grain Hot Cereal. Definitely recommend it. - Connie B.
Without a doubt...BEST maple syrup. PERIOD!
So MUCH better than any organic brand I’ve tried. So rich tasting, smooth finish and not bitter! - Elizabeth O.
A taste of pure Wisconsin in every drop.
We have tried many grocery bottles of maple syrup mostly blended from Canadian syrup. They were acceptable until we tried Healthy Traditions pure very dark Wisconsin maple syrup. Doubt we can ever go back to ordinary. This syrup has the richest deepest flavor of miracle tree sap, so pure and lusciously delicious. Try it on shredded wheat, Swedish pancakes, German apple pancakes, and so many other homemade creations. Use sparingly. Don’t let a drop go to waste. - Margaret S.
Best EVER!
This dark delicious maple is unlike any other. It’s organic, chemical free and tastes better than any maple syrup we have ever had - and trust me, we have had plenty. Our granola is prize worthy and people make happy noises when I give them a spoonful of this dark delightful syrup. You’ll see once you taste it! - Debra O.
