Upon graduating college, Derek Patry returned home to Berlin, NH to start a family. Having returned home with a Forestry degree and exposure to sugarbush operation and management, Derek was determined to tap into the Northern New Hampshire sugaring world. Starting small in 2010, he tapped a few trees in hopes to start refining a process that would lead to future growth. With help from his father, Dave, this is his 10th consecutive year making pure maple syrup. Derek's daughter, Alivia, and son, Sawyer, also help around the sugarhouse!
Patry's Sugarhouse was established over the summer months of 2012, with its first sugaring season in the spring of 2013. Currently we have around 400 taps that we collect sap from to make liquid gold every spring.
