In case anyone is still curious I understand that they received Multiple Bids for this lease. I guess they haven't decided yet who they are going to go with. Hopefully A local Sugar maker gets it.

I think Dave was one of the bidders, and A company from NY. Depending on how you read the original post it sounds like there could be potential for 65-70000 taps. That would be something.

So our friend from Lancaster got the bid, even though the company from NY was willing to pre pay 5 years of rent
Hard to Find Fault with that. You know with Fuller's the Money will stay Local. They Run a Nice operation

I wonder if the NY company was Crown Maple? They are trucking concentrated sap from Manchester VT to their processing facility 100 miles north of NYC.

Here's your answer.....http://randolphforest.org/fullers-su...tapping-lease/
Supposedly the 27,000ish number is just for current stocking as well, that number is expected to double within a short amount of time as trees grow into tapable diameters. Gunna be a big project!Glad they kept it local..I'm tapping right next door in Gorham with a .60 cent lease rate, which is 2 cents more than what Division of Forest and Lands told me their current lease rate is. They also said they are expecting the state rate to increase within the next few years.
