Where exactly do you consider central ? And how far are you willing to travel ?
6th season solo sugar maker in a young sugar bush of mostly red maples
320 taps
2x6 self built arch, Flat pans w/ dividers
New 12x16 sugar house
CDL hobby 250 RO
I guess that would depend on the opportunity. For hobby size, 1000 taps or less, i guess i would travel one hour from the Marlborough mass area.
I have in the past pieced together portions of a business plan and if i had access to purchase or lease what i would consider commercial numbers, 10,000 taps or greater, I would stretch that to 3 hours distance.
I have used on landwatch, fountains land, craigslist, realtor, zillow, google earth and hear.
As an aside I see you also tap red maples, i currently have about 80 taps on red maple and 75 on sugar on a much better grade on 3/16 line (creating a nice gravitation vacuum).
The sugar maples yield so much more higher brix sap every year i think why even tap the reds.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
