Well I finally decided to bite the bullet and get my taps out. Headed to grimms in Rutland to pick up my sap bags and some other things. Today i will get all my tanks clean and sanitized ready to go. Tomorrow me and my brother are installing the new cv2 on are pipeline. Lets hope its a banging year.

Just my luck. I had a big old white birch fall on my mainline yesterday. I go all year without this problem then boom right before the season. The life of a sugar maker aint easy. Well hopefully it stays cold so i can fix it before the sap flows.
