The province and Ottawa are putting over $10 million into maple syrup production in the Madawaska and Restigouche regions.
The money will help to establish four new maple syrup operations in those areas and expand another 19 businesses in Kedgwick, Saint-Quentin, Saint-Joseph de Madawaska, Saint-Jacques, Saint-Basile and Val d’Amour. There will be upgrades such as new taps and collection equipment along with renovations to increase capacity or efficiency.
