First of all, I'm new to the forum and Maple in general.
My brother and I just firmed up 30 acres of sugarbush up in Wilton. Has some collecting stuff there and a sugar-house. All tubing run (enough for 1000 taps).
I'm pretty burried in work (I work in online retail from home here in Cape Cod...though I plan to move up to Maine as soon as we can get a structure on the land) and my brother is active duty Air Force. Long story short, I'd like to find someone who has equipment and can deal with our trees and if possible come work with you and learn some things.
We can buy all equipment if needed, or you can use yours. We were thinking a 50/50 split after consumables (packaging, fuel, etc.) Of course this would be modified if we have to buy a bunch of equipment.
Anyway, as I said we're both pretty busy and if nobody can help out with this this season I'll be helping him move to his next assignment (a 2 week road trip and moving adventure) so we're kind of looking for interest in the next few weeks.
I'm hispls on eBay and a number of other online forums so I'm easy to find and I'm the local contact. I may or may not keep up with PM's on this board...I really really want to spend days/weeks reading here but my days just fill up too fast so emails are best
hispls@comcast.net
Multiple year contracts will be considered. All in all we're relatively flexible and I'm eager to learn.
Looking forward to getting into this business and living off the land in the near future!
