It's been a verry slow season to put it mildly. The weather has either been too cold (everything frozen solid for a week) or too warm (standing around in T-shirts). I've got 100 taps and have so far made 14 L. (2 small boils In 4 weeks) Last year we made well over 60L. I think those on a vacume system are doing ok, but for those of us on old school dripping, were getting our buckets kicked. (pun intended) Anyway, we are at the mercy of mother nature and it's out of our hands.
