Mike Kosier
Kosier Family Maple has been producing 100% pure maple products in Delanson, New York since 1999.
It takes about 40 gallons of maple sap to make one gallon of maple syrup, and our syrup is made with pride by three generations of the Kosier family on a traditional wood fired arch.
John Bard
John has had a long-time passion for beekeeping but never really had the opportunity to fulfill this dream until 2014, when he was asked to help remove a swarm of honey bees from a local barn. With the help of a mentor, John relocated the bees to his 10 acre, off-the-grid, wild property in Delanson and began refining his craft. John is a nature lover who loves “taking care of my girls” and enjoys beginning his each day with a hot cup of tea (with honey) while spending time with his “girls.”
“I love honey and it gives me such happiness to provide honey for other people.” John finds beekeeping and honey making to be very calming and processes his honey by hand.

Ed Weaver, Jr.
Ed has a degree in psychology, over 20 years professional experience in human services, and has been a vigorous advocate for his own special needs twins and (now deceased) parents. While “in the field,” he provided compassionate, direct care coordination to children/families and effectively collaborated with other providers/agencies to ensure proper supports. Ed demonstrated his commitment to give back by volunteering his time to the Board of Directors of the Hypospadias and Epispadias Association, Inc. (6 years) and Glenville YMCA (3 years). In 2013, he partnered with other professionals to co-author “Hypospadias: A Guide to Treatment.” He understand the challenges and difficulties with the end of life transitions, having supported his own parents through this process.
As a parent, Ed effectively advocated for children (testing/diagnosing, securing treatment, identifying community supports), successfully navigated “the system” to obtain necessary services (ACCES-VR, DSS, OPWDD, Social Security), and expertly guided his children into young adulthood and achieve their goals! Ed has the knowledge, skills, experience, and compassion to effectively improve your quality of life!
