PMRC Facilities
The Proctor Maple Research Center
consists of about 200 acres of wooded and open land. Approximately 35-40
acres is an actively managed sugarbush for maple syrup production
and research. The main laboratory building, constructed in 1988, and
expanded in 1994, contains modern research facilities, offices, a kitchen,
workshops, and a conference room accommodating up to 75 people and equipped for
presentations and teaching (the conference room is available to UVM Departments
and other organizations for classroom teaching,
meetings, and retreats). The sugarhouse is used for research and maple
syrup production. Other buildings include the Maple Production Research
Facility, sap storage and
barrel storage sheds, and several small outlying
research buildings.
