History: Prior to mechanical cutters farmers scouted the countryside for labor to hand cut and strip the sugarcane for delivery to the C. S. Steen Syrup Mill.


cutting cane Home Away From Home: In the hustle and bustle of today's fast paced society, one can truly count on friendship as a treasure. If one is lucky enough to have friendship that lasts generation after generation, that's when WE call it FAMILY. Here at Steen Syrup Mill, we have been blessed with the good fortune of calling so many of the employees family. Like in any group, certain names spark special memories. When we say Kye we think of dedication, loyalty, laughter and forty-six years of service. Pierre brings to mind devotion, after all, he was there for sixty years and has seen three generations of syrup makers grow and prosper. 0l' Smiley was sure to bring a smile to our faces with his drawings of steam engines and tractors, showing the era in which he grew up in. There's Sabre, Narris and Johnnie, three generations of Duhon's that have worked with us. Frank the bookkeeper, Toothpick the truck driver and the list could go on and on. Steen Syrup Mill has and still is blessed with a unique working environment as well as wonderful co-workers who create an extended family at the Mill that we will always treasure.
