Jared Hunt and Scott Friske started Chicago Maple in 2018 after they purchased Mackinac Bluffs Maple Farms from Jared’s Dad Lindy, Aunt Lynelle and Uncle Luke. Jared, Scott and their wives have lived in the Chicagoland area for over a decade, and as Michiganders-turned-Chicagoans, they saw a need for a local maple presence in the Chicagoland area. And that is how Chicago Maple was born!
