l Vale of the blue ridge maple farm Located in Hillsboro , Virginia , Vale of the Blue Ridge Maple Farm taps several hundred maple trees on Short Hill Mountain just to the west of Hillsboro . As with all pure maple syrup , Vale of the Blue Ridge ’ s maple syrup is made with no additives or artificial sweeteners of any kind . And as an unrefined sugar our syrup retains all the minerals that are naturally present , such as manganese , zinc , and omega 6 fatty acids . This makes maple syrup a great sugar substitute . dlapre656 @ gmail . com
