anyone have experience selling equipment to Canadians, or does anyone have experience buying from US - wondering about customs etc
I have sap running in my veins, and have not made syrup for 30 years (uncle had 2500 taps). Once an addict always an addict. finally bought a property, and I am starting up this spring.
I'm looking for a starter evaporator. may build a block arch, and buy pans???

70 - 100 taps
thanks

There are many Canadain places to buy from. I have no idea where Varna is but it can't be far from at least one or two places.

A good place to start is Atkinsons maple supplies.They are as solid as it comes.Thy are just north of Barrie.

Varna is just off of Lake Huron - 50 minutes NW of London between Goderich & Sarnia

Another good dealer who stocks most of the Leader line is Dick Obrian
aka Uncle Richards. He's just east of Hanover. He get's all the stuff brought up to him in Leader's own truck on regular intervals and it saves a lot on the shipping.

Unlike the H1N1... there's no cure and no vacine.
