Amen to that, without you the Maple Trader would not exist, your vision in the beginning got this great site going and you selflessly footed the cost to run it all these years. Thank you very much for all you have done for us and the entire maple industry. May all of your future endeavors be positive and God Bless you and Kim.

Dave Klish, I recently ordered a 2x6 wood fired evaporator from A&A Sheet Metal which I will be converting to oil fired
Now have solar, 2x6 finish pan, 5 bank 7x7 filter press, large water jacketed bottler, and tankless water heater.
Recently bought another Gingerich RO, this one was a 125, but a second membrane was added thus is a 250, like I had.
After running a 2x3, a 2x6, 3x8 tapping from 79 taps up to 1320 all woodfired, now I'm going to a 2x6 oil fired and a 200-425 taps.
I'll agree with the statements and a big thank you. I think your vision has helped the maple industry grow and become a lot more educated through your vision.

I agree with Brandon. Personally, I've become a much better maple producer because of the information and support offered in this forum and the industry has definitely grown because of your extra efforts. Many a backyarder has found the information they need to get started here and many a hobbyist has found what they need to build a business - or at least a more expensive hobby!
Thanks Chris and Kim and good luck with your operation up there.

Absolutely well deserved thanks, this site rules. Facebook has ruined a lot of internet forums. Great to be able to come here and learn from some great people.
Thank you very much. This site has been like another set of parents for me. I can always call and ask a question. I may get chewed out or praised but I always learned something every time I called. Thank you

Thank you so much Chris and Kim for starting Maple Trader and working so hard to keep this great site going. I have learned so much over the years about maple sugaring and it's because of this site. I wish the two of you the very best in all you do. God Bless you both.

Let's just say, without the information and learning opportunities this site offers, I'd still be scratching my head trying to figure out how to increase my boil rate on a pot-belly wood stove and chili pot. Ahhh how we all have grown!!!
Thank you both for all you have done for members and the maple industry.
