Does anyone know the current bulk prices? Made 42 gal. this year. Not bad for the first on my own with 42 buckets. Sugar content ran 3.5 - 3.7 all season.

That production/tap rivels the best vacuum systems with CV's. Good work. Do you have any more trees like that? They were likely roadside or yard trees with huge canopies. If you have more you've got a gold mine. We all wish for sap% like that.
As for bulk prices, unfortunately you are in a saturation market locally. Your bulk prices there, surrounding Lowville, will be lower. To get prevailing prices you might need to drive a ways. But, what do you have? I might be interested in light amber at $2.90/lb or $32.77/ gal. Density must not be low. Were your buckets lead free? If food grade buckets and not old lead soldered ones contact me.

Adam, one gallon per tap??? Amazing--great work! I thought I was doing well with .5 gallon per tap. You hit the holy grail.

adamsmithnny,
Wow almost 4% sap! Hag on to those trees. And can you ship some to NW PA?
Nice job making 1 gallon per tap.

Chris
