We learn from our mistakes, don’t we? Last year we tapped at the end of the first week in January and had our first canning on February 22nd. It may be a mistake but we started tapping Monday the 23rd of January. The weather was just too tempting. We put in 146 taps including 55 in two new locations. Sap was running good and we probably have about 170 gallons already. Ran out of “T’s” so no more new one’s until new supplies are received, but we have some more to put in that we tapped last year plus a few bucket taps. It looks like we should go over 200 taps total.
