The Wisconsin Maple Syrup Producers Association (WMSPA) is inviting residents and visitors to its 2026 Fall Tour, scheduled for October 2 and 3 in District 1 of the Green Bay area. Attendees can choose to join the Friday program, the Saturday program, or both days.
Friday, Oct. 2 – Packers Stadium and Hall of Fame
Friday’s itinerary begins with a guided tour of Lambeau Field at 3:00 p.m., lasting roughly two hours. The stadium tour includes access to the Packers Hall of Fame, which remains open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.; visitors may explore the Hall at any time before the stadium tour begins. After the tour, participants can enjoy a social gathering upstairs at the Brickstone in De Pere, featuring an ordered‑menu dinner.
Saturday, Oct. 3 – Sugarbushes, Chocolate and Family Lunch
Saturday starts with coffee, treats and registration at Maple Buzz Café, where buses will load for visits to three local sugarbushes: J and T’s Sugarbush, Skarda Maple Farms/Sap Spy, and Maple Sweet Dairy/Maple Buzz. The tour also includes a stop at Seroogy’s Chocolates and a look at Baroun Century Farms’ robotic milking operation. A broasted‑chicken lunch with all the fixings will be served at DeGrand’s Family Restaurant.
