We bought the properties in 2013, and the syrup equipment also which included shack, 2'x4' back pan, 2'x3'divided front pan, fired by wood, pipelines, buckets, testers, and all the other misc. items to make syrup. Previous owner stated that there was 350 trees to tap on the property. I haven't done a count yet of the actual number spread over the 40 acres. I did 16 gallons in 2014, and a little bit over 6 gallons in 2015 as I was out of the country for 3 weeks of the season. This year I plan on 150 taps-115 on pipeline and 35 on buckets. Still just in the very green stages of this latest addiction.
