We tap all reds and I see a 3 - 4 day hot spell that may do it for us this year will have to see for sure but I think this may be our last week in ohio

Was frozen solid again Friday and Saturday. Sunday afternoon a nice steady flow started and I expect we'll be making syrup tonight or tomorrow. Have to go check the trees but they were running strong yesterday afternoon.

Talked to a longtime maple man today and he said when you hear the peepers at night its time to pull the taps. I see almost a week of warm weather starting thurs so I bet next week will be that time. Cool way to know though
