Pinkerton High School Student's Credit Bearing Passion Project

Ryan Neal, a senior at Pinkerton Academy has been producing maple syrup professionally for the last two years out of his own Sugar Shack. This registered work based learning experience is associated with the school’s Environmental Studies/Forestry programming.

Doug Cullen, Manager of Career Services at Pinkerton Academy, worked with Ryan to personalize his academic schedule and ensure he received credit for this experience.

Checkout Ryan’s website at: https://www.ryansugarshack.com/shop. Ryan also has his own LLC and just landed a distribution gig with Hannaford's which is being highlighted locally.

Ryan has also been featured in the Union Leader and is currently being filmed by NH Chronicle.
