Slow Start due to Frigid Temps in CT

Well we were off to a bang in the first week with temps in the 40's daytime and 20's at night. The wive's tale is that you tap at the first full moon in February which we did. The first 17 days , we boiled 200 gallons and had 4 3/4 gallons of finished fancy amber syrup.
All of a sudden the freeze hit and the taps stopped running. I can only hope that this week brings back some 40's and sunshine to melt my frozen buckets.

NEW PRICES:

Quart $15
Pint $10

I'll keep you posted on the boils
