Who We Are
Thatcher's Sugarhouse has been in
existence since 1906, when Charles Thatcher built a sugarhouse. His son,
Floyd next used the sugarhouse. Then Floyd's son, Arthur used it. Now
the sugarhouse is run by Arthur's son Dennis and his wife, Theresa. They
are helped out by Dennis's brother, Charles and Theresa's brother, Henry
Snape, Jr. The original sugarhouse built in 1906, located at the Family
Dairy Farm, was retired in 2000.
A new
Sugarhouse was built in 2000 and in located at 12 Broom Street. The new
Sugarhouse was built to be more accessible to the public.
The sugar house is located in
