It was supposed to be for the 2013 season. It has been moved to 2014 but we shall see.

From Quebec to ME, NH, VT and NY we already have 5 places using a slightly different grading system. The new system is supposed to be international and apply to all maple producing states and provinces. I don't want to have to re educate my customers but in the long run this is going to be good for the maple industry.
