In case you aren’t an avid reader of Only In Buffalo and have somehow yet to hear the good news, throughout the entire month of March here in New York State, we celebrate all things maple related. So far, we’ve covered amazing attractions that are happening during this delicious time of year like Arcade & Attica’s tasty maple weekend train ride, but this isn’t the only maple themed happening that you’ll find going on here in Western New York! Taking you just east of the Queen City, it’s time to see all that you can experience at this nearby maple festival this year.
Only 60-miles east of the city of Buffalo, it’s time to make the trip out to the Genesee Country Village and Museum in Mumford.
