Well I guess I jumped the gun, that's my entry labled "Guest", sorry about that :oops: anyway, would like info on building Sugaring House, will try to get the gears meshed before takeoff in the future. Webmaster: delete the entry for Sugaring House Plans authored by "Guest" if you would like. Again, sorry bout that :?

if there is no one near you in Iowa I would suggest you purchase the North American Maple Syrup Producers Manual. It has a section on setting up a sugar house and eveything else you could think of. The best thing is to visit another sugar house and see how they have done things ask what they would do differently if they were doing it again. Alot of it will depend on the size of the operation you want
You can buy it on line from Bascom's or Leader for about $13.00

Keith, Pegjam, and Jim,

Thanks for the quick response and ideas for Sugarhouse designs. I'm sure the books you mentioned will do the trick to having a set up that works well. Nice Pics on Jim's site, thanks Pegam! You too Jim and Keith.
