I always thought Vermonters were blowing smoke up their own bums when they said they could taste the difference in syrup from one sugar bush to the next. Maybe they are. But, there are most certainly some syrups that are better than others. Poorfarm Farm's syrup is literally the most delicious syrup I have ever tasted. I take sips from the jug in our fridge and cut out any middle man of yogurt or granola or pancakes.
So, if you are in need of a hit of Vermont autumn and are in the big fancy city, head over to see them outside the Brooklyn Commune.
601 Greenwood Ave, Windsor Terrace, Brooklyn, NY
Saturday (tomorrow) Oct. 13th 10-5pm. I'd get there on the early side. I hear they have quite the reputation in Brooklyn and may sell out early.

interesting! this place is right near my apartment and i've never been although i have passed by so many times. windsor terrace is sort of an up and coming neighborhood - i used to live there but then moved to park slope (which is much more "happening") but i am so happy to see stuff like this going on in WT! i might just take a little walk tomorrow to pick some of this syrup up. i like using syrup in everything to sweeten it. sauces, dressings, meats, COFFEE!

This would be a delightful treat... Wish I lived near by, I am always wanting REAL syrup.

I can't even remember the last time I had syrup, and I don't think I've ever had it on granola. I just got hungry!
