Up and running again!!
It's been a wild start up but things actually came together this week. We had a new 2x6 Leader Patriot that had to be set up, a redesigned feed tank system to plumb and two weeks less to work than we thought thanks to the weather. After some head scratching we finally did a test boil on water Monday... MAJOR STEAM YEAH !
With a new hope we are now almost fully tapped and have two hundred gallons of sap ready to boil this weekend.
I don't know if its going to be a long season here in the lower valley, but I guess we've all got to take what we get.
Best of luck everyone.
