Well, This year started off with a bang and ended with a thud and not a good thud at all. We had a spike in temp on one Sunday which made the sap start to turn. Being Quality Control and Head of Sugaring, I decided along with Doug to throw out the almost 200 gallons that we had collected and were using as fast as we could.
Nothing could prepare us for the 40 to 61 degree change in temp so quickly and that is Mother Nature at her worst.
Our season started late and ran longer , but all in all we are still short about 7 boils which adds up to 7 Gallons of Maple Syrup.
I apologize to those who waited so patiently and were eager to try either the first time or as a repeat customer.
Weather controls US , we cannot control the Weather !!
On Wed, 25th , we pulled the taps as trees are budding and Spring has Sprung. This makes for rancid tasting syrup and even though some still use it, We do NOT
Thank you for following us this season
