Or if I could bring sap and you boil it to Make maple Syrup? Could keep some for compensation. Because I don't have much of a setup to boil it down.

Thanks,

John

We can take sap and boil it in with ours if it can be worked out. 30 cents/gallon of 3% test sap is payable in finished syrup @$17/quart or $60/gallon.
I have done over 25 gallons in 4 boils this last week - average test is 3.7%. Everything has graded A- Light Amber. I am out of sap and standing down as of tonight, but can consider firing up Friday or Saturday if someone has enough fresh sap to boil. I run 50 gph through the evaporator.
Email me on the email below - let me know how many gallons you have, what the test is and how old it is.

Is there any one else near the East side of Green Bay buying sap? Trees were running well today had 16 gallons collected by 6 pm and was still flowing out of my 8 spouts.
