I would imagine they are just getting to the peak of their season in Quebec where 80% of the world's syrup is made so we probably won't know much for a few more weeks. If they know already, it means they had a bad year.

Who are the Olds brothers and would they buy a couple thousand gallons?
they made 3800 gallons this year. they are 20 miles south of Traverse city. I doubt they would buy that much, but you can talk to Dick and see how much he buys and when. The number to their dairy barn is 231-263-5683. the best time ot catch them is when they are milking...abuot 4. am or pmOriginally Posted by Mark

He must tap the same as I do since we made the same amount so far, another weekend to go I hope. I usually wait until we see what Canada did before moving any. Does he pay cash on delivery? I will give him a call after the season ends.
he will write you a check on delivery

I will pass on RMG.
What do commercial prices usually do? I have 60 gal and wondering if I should sell it now or wait until later in the year.
