Our maple farm & sugar house are located on a small country road directly on the Lewis & Gilmer County border. We are an approximately 30 minute meandering drive from I-79 Exit 91 & Stonewall Resort. Open during Maple season normally January-February but call/text (304)695-0570 to make sure we’re not out in the woods!

Heasley Homestead
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 2250 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. Heasley Homestead Maple has been increasing production every year and has just finished construction of a new 50’ x 70’ “sugar shack”. Please stop by during maple season and see a small producer’s operation, and sample some of West Virginia’s prize winning maple syrup, sugar, cream and/or candy.
Croagh Patrick
At Croagh Patrick, we are experimenting with maple syrup production, with the intention of producing enough to share with friends and family, and to share learning experiences with other beginners.
