As business owners and people who sells products, when they know a GMP employee walks through the door charge them double what you would charge a normal customer and see if they like it! Especially the CEO,cfo, etc
Donuts should be tripled in price!

I would be pretty happy with GMP. I'll trade you my WEC (Washington Electric) for your GMP anyday. WEC has some of the highest rates in the state, and they want an arm and a leg to install new service. they want 4K for 300 ' over head. It's 1950 for 1 pole, and 200 per guide wire. ASk GMP what they charge. Like 1300 a pole and they are negotiable on new service installs.
WEC Charges me a "member ship" fee. GMP doesn't charge a member fee. That's right, WEC charges a fee to be apart of their over priced club. Again, I'd take GMP anyday. WEC has motivated me to seek renewable energy. Paying them makes my skin crawl.
If you can tell I really like WEC.

The sap unloaded yesterday. I'd guess I collected near 6-7,000 gal since 10 AM yesterday on 2300 taps.
had probably best 24 hours sap run of the season from noon yesterday to noon today. got 500 gallons of sap and made 11 gallons. 10% had dried up but one bucket ran 4.75 gallons in 22 hours.
Went from commercial yesterday to Grade B, then Grade A Dark Amber today. Tomorrow looks good. up to 72% crop w/ 87 gallons .

We are all done here in williston , sap ran good and hard after the freeze , we boiled today and it would not filter at all so we pulled the plug and shut down . We made 700 gallons this year after 900 last year , a lot of that syrup came in a short time , 600 gallons from 3/30 -4/14 and that's all Mother Nature could give us. Till next year !!
Our biggest day ever. 40 gallons. But some was catch up from yesterday. Dark Amber but flavor was starting to turn. Not sure how much longer.
Well ,i tried to boil down the rest i had at my sugarhouse but it didnt go so well. Syrup hit temperature but wouldnt even get close to density and it spiked to 226 degrees and it wasnt even close. So i pulled the plug. Sap is still cranking and the sugar was still around 1.6%. Just a wierd year in all. Very bad year with finishing up at 1920 gallons. Made 3100 last year with 900 less taps.
Pulled the plug- plenty of nice clear sap.....that tested at under 1%. RO'd all day to make 30 gallons........that wouldn't filter and didn't taste top shelf. I don't sell in bulk, so don't have much of a market to keep making commercial unfiltered. Not a terrible year- within 100 gals of last year. I'll just buy 100 gallons more than last year.
