Thurman’s annual Maple Days weekends are a popular spring event in the southern Adirondacks.

Every spring, as the temperatures begin to warm and the once-frozen landscape awakens, the sap from majestic maple trees flows freely, transforming the picturesque town of Thurman into a charming haven infused with the sweet, inviting aroma of maple syrup.
