Tapping in Franklin county
We managed to get 300 in this weekend. Made repairs and cut in new drops and tapped. We figured we would make one pass on each line rather than making two trips on each line. Next weekend we will try and get the other 300 in. The snow is over 3 foot and I cant walk on top of it very well. Well, hope everyone gets them all in and get a lot of sap.
