Maple Syrple Update Peace

Can I get a "OOOOH YEEEAAAH"??

What you see in the picture is 4 gallons of sap, reduced by half. What does that mean?? We're close to our first pint(ish) of MAPLE SYRUP. 

After tapping some trees 6 days ago, we were able to collect 5+ gallons of sap. And the sap will continue to fill buckets as time goes on. Ideal temperatures for the sap to flow is: freezing at night, above freezing during the day. We've only had a couple if those days this week so we're excited to have as much as we do. 

After about 7-8 hours of boiling, we have 11oz of maple syrup!

We boiled a little long, so it's very sweet. But, now we know. 

I encourage everyone out there to try out a new skill. The reward can be oh so sweet!

Wishing everyone out there maple syrup peace and... Hair Peace!
