Meet Your Festival Board

The Shepherd Maple Syrup Festival is made possible thanks to a dedicated team of volunteers who pour their time, talent, and heart into planning and hosting this beloved community tradition. From our board members to event coordinators, every role is filled by generous individuals who believe in giving back to our village. We’re proud to be a volunteer-run festival…created by the community, for the community.
