Savor the Sweetness of Bonz Beach Maple Sugar
While Onaway isn’t technically Mid-Michigan, it still feels like home.
Founded by Hemlock native Gary Shepherd, Bonz Beach Farms was born from a deep love of the land and a true Michigan work ethic.
What started as a retirement hobby tapping local sugar maples has blossomed into a thriving farm rooted in sustainability and simple goodness.
At Bonz Beach, Pure Michigan Maple Syrup is slowly transformed into rich, golden maple sugar—perfect for coffee, oatmeal, baking, or any recipe where you’d use white sugar.
But here's the sweet truth: it’s better for you.
- Lower glycemic index than white sugar or honey
- Naturally packed with minerals like zinc and manganese
- No additives, no shortcuts—just pure, complex maple flavor
Better Taste, Better Value
Bonz Beach Maple Sugar is not only healthier—it’s fairly priced.
At just $14 per pound, it consistently beats national brand prices by 30–40% per ounce.
Compare it to:
- Sapsquatch ($1.09/oz)
- Vermont Maple ($1.25/oz)
- Butternut Mountain ($1.43/oz)
With Bonz Beach, you’re getting premium quality without the premium markup—direct from the source.
