Collected 6 gallons from 8 taps, since last week. All trees are red maples. There was a slight cloudiness, so I'm pulling the taps and boiling the last collection as a separate batch. Looking in the tops of the trees it seems the buds have broken (red maples). This is eastern New London county.

Short and sweet (pun intended) season for me. The land I have access to has no sugar maples so to get more production I will have to tap more trees.
