How long have you been doing syrup? I'm from Marshall county and this is the earliest we've tapped, but it's only our 5th year.

Have you guys gotten much sap? I put 18 taps in last week, and have only collected about 7 gallons. Curious to what other people in the region are getting

Im thinking next week should be good, this week is gonna be cold so I'm not expecting much even though I got about 2 gallons from one of my yard trees yesterday. Gonna wait untill te beginning of next week to put in the rest of my taps. Getting anxious to boil!!!
