We have a proud history of making high quality maple Syrup. It’s been a tradition in our family for over fifty years.

The Cooper-Ellis family has been in the maple syrup business for over fifty years. During the 1950’s and 60’s we sold maple syrup under the Cooper-Ellis Sugar Makers label. Today, Fraser and Peter Cooper-Ellis jointly own and operate CE Maple, one of the largest and most respected Southern-Vermont maple syrup farms.

CE Maple is known for producing consistently high-quality, Vermont maple syrup. In addition to CE Maple, Fraser and Peter both individually own and operate retail, maple syrup businesses. Fraser owns and operates Fraser’s Vermont Maple. Peter owns and operates Hidden Springs Maple.

About the Hidden Springs Maple Sugar Bush

A group of maple trees is known as a "sugar bush". The Hidden Springs Maple sugar bush is located at 5816 Westminster Road, Westminster West, Vermont. The sugar bush is spread across approximately 1,000 acres of eastern-sloping, Southern-Vermont mountain ridge known locally, as Bemis Hill. Our sugar bush contains a large number of natural springs which provide our maple trees with an excellent source of pure, natural spring water. The area provides ideal habitat for maple tree growth. Many of our trees are over one hundred years old, and over hundred feet tall. These trees produce high quality, sweet, maple sap which is the only ingredient you need to produce high quality maple syrup.

We harvest maple sap from wild, sugar maple trees only. This matters because not all maple trees are equal. Unlike many of the Canadian maple producers, we do not harvest maple sap from either red maple trees or black maple trees. The sap from the sugar maple is sweeter than that of either the red maple or the black maple. Sweeter maple sap makes the highest-quality maple syrup.
