On April 5, 2022, Shaws Maple Syrup received the 2022 Heritage Business Award from the Simcoe County Historical Association. The Heritage Business Award recognizes businesses that have influenced the development of Simcoe County through generations of entrepreneurial innovation and excellence. We were honoured to receive the award and celebrate our family’s long history as a maple syrup producer in Oro-Medonte.
“When we can locate a business that has been running nearly 120 years in the same family, five generations of them mind you, but in the same family, then its a wonderful tribute we can pay to this family and this business that has stayed viable for so long“. Donna Wise of the Simcoe County Historical Association.
Our family has been making maple syrup on this property every spring since 1904. Over the years, family members have discovered new innovative ways to collect sap and produce maple syrup and we have extended the business to include a Pancake House, a BBQ catering company and Canada’s largest do-it-yourself pig roasting operation. Terri-Lynn and Tom are proud to be the fifth generation of Shaws running our family farm and sugar bush.
“Being recognized as part of Simcoe County’s heritage is a great honour for the Shaw family,” said Tom Shaw. “We are committed to maintaining the standards set for us long ago. We enjoy sharing our family story and strive to create a memorable, enjoyable and quality experience for young and old alike.”

In 1904, Thomas Shaw and his son James (pictured) started tapping trees on this property in Oro-Medonte to make syrup for the Orillia Market.
Five generations and almost 120 years later, James' great-grandson Tom Shaw continues to tap many of the same trees, providing a yearly harvest of delicious maple syrup for the surrounding community.
Thank you to all our guests who came to visit us at the Pancake House during the 2022 Maple Season.
It was WONDERFUL to see so many out enjoying the wonderful taste of nature and the experience in the sugar bush. We can’t wait to see you again next spring.
While we turn our attention to Shaws Catering and providing fully catered bbq events and Do-It-Yourself Pig Roasts, please remember Shaws Maple Syrup is available for purchase year round at Country Produce, Freskiws and down the road at Carthew Bay Pub and Scoops.
Come enjoy what nature has to offer.
