Maple Syrup

Here is our first batch of syrup for this season. Nine half pint jars. The sap is still running so maybe we'll make a little more before the buds come on. Even if we don't this will probably last us until next year.

I heard that Phil Burns had a good year, that he made something like 1100 gallons. Wow! Can hardly imagine that.

  2. Hello Jayedee,
    Yes I agree. It is a very satisfying feeling.

    By the way I have tried a number of times to look at your blog and for some reason it seizes up my computer. Otherwise I'd be by for a visit.

    Thanks for the comment.
