Where Crown Maple products are made
Madava Farms, Dover Plains
Crown Maple was established in 2010 at Madava Farms, an 800-acre organic family farm in New York’s Hudson Valley named for the founders’ daughters, Madeline and Ava. The estate address — 47 McCourt Road, Dover Plains, New York — is both the farm and the production facility.
Estate production
The company describes an “estate produced” model in which sap from its own trees is purified and preserved on site. Founder Robb Turner, whose background is in power and energy, built what the company calls a state-of-the-art production process around traditional maple sugaring.
Certified organic
Crown Maple states the farm is organic and markets its core syrups as organic, with the sugarbush managed as a working forest rather than harvested and replanted.
Crown Maple’s own site states the company was established in 2010 at Madava Farms in Dover Plains, New York, and describes an estate-produced process in which sap from its own trees is purified and preserved on site. Maple syrup is an agricultural product, so batch-to-batch character varies with the season; Crown Maple also sells barrel-aged and infused expressions, and infusion ingredients such as vanilla and cinnamon are tropical commodities that are not grown in New York. The syrup itself, the sugar and the bottling are domestic. We have asked Crown Maple to confirm sourcing for its infused and confectionery lines and will update this page with their answer.
The story
Crown Maple did not begin as a business plan. Robb and Lydia Turner were looking for a family retreat, and their search took them to New York’s Hudson Valley — country Robb had come to know during his time at West Point. They found a cabin at the top of a mountain with a wide range of geography and a long view.
Robb had grown up on a farm, and the property came with something a farm kid notices: maple trees. Rather than treat the sugarbush as a hobby, he approached it the way he had approached his career in power and energy — as an engineering problem. He studied how to purify and preserve maple sap in its most natural form and built a production process around it.
Lydia worked the other half of the problem. As a scratch cook, she pushed maple past the breakfast table and into savory food, baking, and drinks, and that culinary work shaped the product line: not just syrup in grades, but maple sugar, barrel-aged and infused expressions, and confections.
Crown Maple was established in 2010 at Madava Farms, the 800-acre organic farm the Turners named for their daughters Madeline and Ava. The estate at 47 McCourt Road in Dover Plains remains both the farm and the factory.
Why they matter
Almost everything in the American pantry has a supply chain that disappears at the border. Maple is one of the few categories where a shopper can buy a product whose entire origin story fits on a single deed — and Crown Maple is an estate producer, not a blender buying bulk syrup on the commodity market.
That matters practically as well as symbolically. Maple syrup is a well-documented adulteration target, and a producer that taps, evaporates and bottles at one address has far less room for the substitution that happens when syrup changes hands three times before it reaches a label.
It also keeps a working forest working. A sugarbush pays for itself only if the trees stay standing, which makes maple one of the rare agricultural industries where the commercial incentive and the conservation incentive point the same direction — in this case across 800 acres of the Hudson Valley.
