Each state has pride for one thing or another. Ohio is represented in the poll, but we can be proud of our Buckeyes football too.

We have 8-10 producers in RI, mostly hobby or small farm stands.
Our climate is heavily affected by the ocean, we are only 10-15 miles from the ocean at my shack! I am in close contact with 3 other sugarers ranging from 150 taps to 1000+ on tubing. I am trying to get the word out about MapleTrader, it has been a very valuable source of info for me. Thank you!
WOW all the times I,ve been to Maple Trader and have not voted,dropped the ball on that one. 1 more vote for Michigan home of the Michigan State Spartans going to the big dance in March looking for a final 4 finish. Also the highest unemployment rate in the nation,lots of sap haulers avalibale just call.
One more for Michigan.
Hooo-yah!
Still not a breathing soul voting for Virginia? What? No maples?
Ah'm jes sayin'... looks like New England is running away with this thing.
