New Hampshire Maple Weekend is an annual event organized by the New Hampshire Maple Producers Association. For one weekend in March, sugarhouses across the state open to the public to celebrate maple sugaring, educate visitors about turning sap into syrup, share their sugaring process and sell their products. This year’s event takes place Saturday, March 21, and Sunday, March 22 (times vary by sugarhouse).
Please note: Sugaring season depends on the weather. Sufficient snow, and a combination of warm days and cold (but not frigid) nights — ideally, daytime temperatures in the 40s and in the low 20s at night — are required. We expect to be tapping trees in 2026, and enough sap will flow in time to be collected for boiling on NH Maple Weekend. Watch the weather and stay tuned!

MAPLE SYRUP GRADING TERMS
Grade A | Golden Color and Delicate Taste
The first runs of sap in the early spring make the lightest maple syrup. Recommended for use with waffles, pancakes, or ice cream.
Grade A | Amber Color and Rich Taste
As the season progresses, this more flavorful syrup is produced—considered the “classic” taste of maple syrup. Recommended for waffles and pancakes and for use in cooking and baking.
Grade A | Dark Color and Robust Taste
Near the end of the season, at about weeks 4–6 of the sap flow, this stronger-flavored syrup is produced. Recommended for recipes that require a heavy maple flavor.
Grade A | Very Dark and Strong Taste
At the very end of maple season, small amounts of syrup that are very strong in flavor are produced. Recommended as a substitute for molasses, and for use in cooking and making maple-flavored candies.

“Wet Paint Tamworth” at Remick
2026-04-24 09:00 - 16:00 | Tamworth, New Hampshire
Wet Paint Tamworth returns to Remick on Friday, April 24 (times listed are approximate)! This 7th annual painters’ retreat, organized by The Preserve at Chocorua, provides professional artists with a collective and immersive time to paint outdoors, en plein air. This year’s event takes place Thursday, April 23–Saturday, April 25 (daily schedule). Each day of the retreat, the group gathers at various scenic and sought-out locations across Tamworth, including Remick. While on-site, the artists welcome visitors to observe them as they paint and enjoy interacting with interested onlookers. It’s always a special time at the farmstead, and the resulting paintings allow us and visitors to see this historic site through the artists’ perspectives.
As a group, the painters are encouraged to paint at a pre-selected site on a given day. Some choose to paint at Remick on an additional day. Over the course of this annual event, numerous artists have let us know that Remick is their preferred spot to paint during the retreat due to its variety of inspiring subject matter: scenery, architecture, pond, twisting paths, animals, birds, Mt. Chocorua…
Paintings done during the retreat will be on public display in The Hayford Barn at The Preserve, Thursday, April 23–Saturday, April 25. A portion of all sales will benefit the NH Food Bank’s Summer Nutrition Program, which provides food for kids during their summer break. (Remick was pleased to be able to provide a meal boxing space for this program in 2025.)

Marion Miles Remick Bird Walk
2026-05-23 11:00 - 12:00 | Remick Country Doctor Museum & Farm, 58 Cleveland Hill Rd, Tamworth, NH, 03886, United States
During this guided walk, you’ll discover for yourself the Remick property’s vital role in the lives of migratory birds.
Marion Miles Remick (1906–1980) lived on this site from her marriage to Doc Remick in 1929 until her death. In addition to her interests in flower gardening, cats, and horse racing, Marion enjoyed birdwatching.
Marion’s interest in birding may have been encouraged by the grounds where she once lived, which provide a sweeping landscape and a variety of bird habitats, including forests, fields and open water. Avid birders have spotted at least 89 bird species on the Remick grounds — see a sample list on eBird. Learn more about Marion and the “birds of Remick” with your interpretive guide while enjoying the expansive property.
The anniversary of Marion’s birth takes place on May 28 — 120 years ago. This activity is one way we honor her contribution to our site’s history, often overshadowed by our wider story. While on-site, view a few of Marion’s birding items from the museum’s collection.
Activity length: 45–60 minutes.
Binoculars are recommended; dress for outdoor weather and changing conditions underfoot.
Terrain: gravel paths, uneven grassy fields and inclines.

School-to-Farm Day 2026 (Carroll County)
2026-05-28 09:30 - 13:30 | Remick Country Doctor Museum & Farm, 58 Cleveland Hill Rd, Tamworth, NH, 03886, United States
Once again, New Hampshire Agriculture in the Classroom returns to Remick with its School-to-Farm Day for Carroll County! We look forward to welcoming this year’s local crop of fourth graders, who are eager to learn about various types and forms of agriculture in New Hampshire and how they impact their lives.
What are School-to-Farm Days?
As stated on the New Hampshire Agriculture in the Classroom website, “The event brings together 4th-grade students from different elementary schools throughout the county for a day of learning about the importance of agriculture. Farmers and other professionals are on hand to present mini-lessons and demonstrations on topics such as beekeeping, sheep raising, wool carding and spinning, dairy cows, oxen, maple sugaring, vegetable production, soil ecology, chickens and more. Students visit the stations, meet the experts, see the animals and experience a taste of farm life.” EVENT FLYER
Remick Country Doctor Museum & Farm has been pleased to serve as the host site for this impactful event for several years. If you are interested in participating — whether as a class or a demonstrator, contact New Hampshire Agriculture in the Classroom to learn what’s possible. (This event is closed to the general public.)

THE MISSION OF NEW HAMPSHIRE AGRICULTURE IN THE CLASSROOM
Our goal is to increase the agricultural literacy of New Hampshire’s youth. Educational materials help to integrate agriculture, food and natural resources into K-12 classrooms. By applying authentic agricultural examples to teach core curriculum concepts in science, social studies, math, language arts and nutrition, student awareness can be improved. These programs cultivate an understanding and appreciation of the food, fiber and fuel systems that we all depend upon every day.

Take a guided walk on the farmstead grounds to visit the historic cattle barn, milk house, and horse stable, to learn about harness racing in New England, the equine history on the property, and the commercial dairy that operated on-site for 30+ years!
Tour includes structures on the New Hampshire Barn Tour and an interesting detail about the property’s tie to the Civilian Conservation Corps company that served the town of Tamworth, Company 117 (S-53).

Note: This tour will focus on the history of Holsteins and horses on the farmstead, as neither is being raised on-site at this time.

Picnic-scapes: A celebration of picnicking!
2026-07-01 10:00 - 2026-07-31 15:00 | Remick Country Doctor Museum & Farm, 58 Cleveland Hill Rd, Tamworth, NH, 03886, United States
During July — National Picnic Month — the Hearth Room at the Remick Country Doctor Museum & Farm is home to a lighthearted exhibit of “Picnic-scapes”: creative interpretations of picnic scenes from the museum’s collection and local guest exhibitors.
The museum’s display, entitled “Doc & Marion on a Picnic,” features a picnic basket and picnic-related items from the Remick collection. Items in the exhibit belonged to the museum’s namesake country doctor, Dr. Edwin “Doc” C. Remick (1903-1993) and his wife, Marion Remick, née Miles (1906-1980). Visitors can learn what Doc Remick’s favorite picnic foods were, see the recipe for his favorite picnic cookie, and learn about sandwich trends from the 1950s, as well as view personal-interest items of the couple. The modest living quarters the couple shared for 50 years, including the kitchen where the couple would have prepared their picnics, can also be visited (accessible by stairs only).
In addition, enlarged copies of summertime photos from the Remick collection are displayed on the walls. Visitors are encouraged to record their favorite picnicking spot, foods and memories at the “Food for Thought” table, and enjoy time at a picnic-themed coloring-page station.
This year’s local guest exhibitors include:
+ Arts Council of Tamworth
+ Barnstormers Theatre
+ Chocorua Lake Conservancy
+ Chocorua Public Library
+ Tamworth Community Nurse Association
+ Tamworth Parks and Recreation
Bring a picnic of your own to enjoy outdoors!
FREE Includes access to the Museum Center; donations gratefully accepted.

Visitor Picnicking Reflections from previous years…
“On Father’s Day and Mother’s Day this year, we went on a picnic to Fullersburg in Hinsdale, Illinois. They were beautiful days to sit outside. While we didn’t make our sandwiches, we bought them from a favorite local shop! It is a great memory!” ~ Jess Landis, Chicago, IL
“On the rocks in the river, by the cave in the falls. Scotch eggs are a favorite.” ~ Janine Bryant, Acton, ME
“I love picnics. My favorite foods and things are apples, grapes, bread and ramen. And my cat, Gohan.” ~ Fae, Maine (young visitor)
“Picnics with my birth families in the country where we picked raspberries, or by the lake so the children could play. Good food and good times with family. ~ Diane

Play Music on the Porch Day started out as an idea: What if, for one day, everything stopped, and we all just listened to the music? Could common ground be found through music?
In 2014, Play Music on the Porch Day became a worldwide event and by 2018, thousands of musicians from 70+ countries and thousands of cities participated and the movement is growing. Visit the event’s website.
