    We besides making syrup, farm raising beef cattle, hay, breed show and sell miniature horses, have a seasonal greenhouse business, have up to 90 hives of bees. Oh and if I want to eat we have a construction business. We used to run a 120 farrow to finish hog operation. Looking to get the maple and bees up enough to quit the construction.
