10 min away. Between Putnam and Avon, we own Flagswipe and tap trees around the farm where the outdoor is. We had a small run today, will know more tomorrow when I dump everything, but it makes me hopeful again !

...it tastes great...I had too much today....:(...once we get that reset it should lighten up even more.
Collected over 200gal today, boiling Wed. I don't know how you guys make that light syrup, mine is dark. Tastes great but not fancy looking like that. The good news is 90% of the people I sell it to want the darkest coloured I have, perception thing I guess. My first batch off the evaporator on the 17th was a nice light amber but since then its pretty dark.
I got little yesterday and I'm pretty sure after that storm last night my buckets are full of rain water now :(
I hear you ...I near swamped my atv getting small amounts of sap this morning...I'm ready to throw in the towel.
Dont throw in the towel yet, next week looks goodQuote:
