Upcoming BVSA Events
Summer 2008
We will be updating our program and improving our facilities over the summer, thanks to a support from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Conservation & Recreation. Some of our projects include:
- upgrading the sampling area
- improving the efficiency of the bottling process
- landscaping around the sugarhouse
We will also be supporting our fellow non-profit associations at various events in the valley.
