“ | Turns out, Maple Syrup was a front for his true business, transporting heroin from Montreal on his trucks. | ” |
Blossom Maple Farms is the Blossom family business. Since its founding in 1941, the Blossoms have held a monopoly on the lucrative maple syrup trade.
Prior to Jason Blossom's death, he was the named heir of the company. After his murder, which was a PR disaster, the board of trustee's descended upon Riverdale contemplating a hostile takeover. With Jason's death and Polly Cooper pregnant and unwed, they believed Clifford had lost control of things and actively looked for a way to take the company from him.
Its true purpose was revealed to be that Cliff Blossom used the company as a front to smuggle in drugs from other countries. The Maple Farms was also the sight where Clifford presumably hung himself after being exposed as Jason's murderer.
Underneath the fertile lands, reside the Blossom mines where rich veins of Palladium could be mined.
