Heasley Homestead Maple

The Heasley Homestead is nestled in the hills of Northern West Virginia in Preston County, about 3 miles north of I-68 at the Bruceton Mills exit 23. (2988 Compressor Station Rd, Bruceton Mills, WV) The 50-acre property and surrounding neighbor’s properties contain 2200 maple trees (both sugar and red) that are being tapped for maple syrup. Natural gravity tubing systems are being used to collect the sap, and pump lines bring the sap to the new sugarhouse. The sap is then processed with a reverse osmosis machine, a 3’ x 12’ oil-fired evaporator, a filter-press and a water-jacketed canner to produce and bottle the maple syrup. We also make maple sugar, maple cream, maple candy and maple cotton candy from the syrup. The Heasley Homestead Maple has been increasing production every year and has just finished construction a new 50’ x 70’ “sugar shack”. Please stop by during maple season in February and March to see a small producer’s operation, and sample some of West Virginia’s prize-winning maple syrup, sugar, cream and/or candy.
