Mar 21 - added 10 more gallons of sap to total 80 so far, and lit the fire under the cooker. Will add sap as collected cor about two more weeks. YUM!!Today is April 9 and we are cooking down the last of the sap. We will end up with around 12 gal of finished syrup. Was a great year for our first crop of the season. Christmas gifts will be sweet this year.
Set up the first of the maple syrup taps today Mar 4. It will probably be slow for a while yet, but we did see some wet bark as we drilled the taps. It was beautiful down in the woods today, and Molly had a great time running the hills.
