It started with a 30-gallon drum, a wood fire, a few gallons of sap, and lots of time spent in a young boy’s life. John Deets was only twelve when he started collecting sap from the maple trees around his father’s house to make enough syrup for his family. During the many hours watching the sap boil, John began to dream of some day owning and operating a sugar house, which would involve the tapping of hundreds of maple trees.

Deets’ Sugar House is now much more than just delicious Pennsylvania maple syrup. With the addition of food and sweet treats, Deets’ operates a seasonal food and ice cream restaurant 7 days a week during the summer months.

With their new BBQ cart, Deets’ now caters events for family reunions, graduations, weddings, company parties, bridal showers, and more!
