Started Tapping in Harmarket

[Monongahela]

This is my first year of sugaring since I was a teenager, over 30 years ago. I'm on a new property that has about 3 dozen tapable black maples. I'm going to ease into it my first year and only tap a half dozen trees or so. Got 5 tapped this afternoon. May do a few more later in the week if the sap starts to flow.

Welcome to maple trader & welcome back to the addiction ;).

Good luck on your season.

Hey Monongahela were are you located in VA ? I`m a misplaced sugar maker from VT and this will be my first time trying to sugar here in Culpeper VA
