Located in Parke County, Meece’s Sweetwater Farm is cooking up some of the tastiest maple syrup in the Hoosier State. At the end of the cold season, farmers tap the trees to produce pure maple syrup.
Jim and Gale Meece run Meece’s Sweetwater Farm, offering demonstrations of maple-syrup making each year during the county’s Maple Syrup Fair. In addition to syrup, the couple also produces sassafras candy and sassafras jelly, which has a taste similar to root beer.

Local honey is my favorite! I have several beekeepers locally to purchase from.
Local honey is my favorite 🙂
I love picking fresh blueberries at the farm just down the road. I typically pick about an hour each week during the season. That gives enough berries that I can eat my fill and still freeze enough for holiday pies and smoothies for the remainder of the year
There’s nothing better on blueberry pancakes than Meece’s pure maple syrup.
Our local honey guy retired and wont get to visit. I would love to try honey and syrup!

Maple syrup, please!
maple syrup is what my Indiana husband misses from home.
I would say sassafras jelly.
I wanted to know the smallest bottle of maple syrup and the cost. Also the sister of a small bag of sassafras candy. I’m making baskets for some of the USF Women’s basketball team. Ieanted items made in Parke county. I would need 3 syrups and 4 candies.
Thank you
I was there for the festival and bought two bags of sassafras candy.It was very good.Look forward to getting some every year!
