There are several choices of sirup and other goodies to choose from in the retail store. Now the sixth generation,is making the maple sirup. The business was established in 1891. Sirup is spelled this way to distinguish it from sugar-based syrup.

This sign stands at the corner where you turn off Route 66 into Funks Grove. It points to the Funks Grove Maple Sirup store 1/4 mile farther west on 66.

xFunks Grove Pure Maple Sirup sets back in the woods a bit, so look for the sign on Route 66.

xThere's a Roadside Attraction.

xDid You Know: Many parts of the old 4 lane Route 66 were reverted to a 2 lane road after 66 was realigned to the interstate. In many places the abandoned lanes are still there.
