Maple and More:
A Working Farm with a Deeper Purpose
Winterhill Forest Farm is an award-winning maple syrup farm and animal sanctuary in rural Hamilton, Ontario. We produce maple syrup in small batches using traditional methods, while providing lifelong refuge for animals in need.
Alongside maple, we offer limited farm goods produced through small-scale farming practices. The animals who live here are not raised for consumption and remain here for life. Proceeds from farm sales support their care.
Why this Place Matters
Winterhill Forest Farm sits within a rare Carolinian forest landscape on the Niagara Escarpment. The property is recognized by the City of Hamilton as a Cultural Heritage Landscape, reflecting its ecological, agricultural, and historical significance. The forest, fields, and working farm are cared for with a long-term commitment to the land and the life it supports.
