Hello All, This blog is to document my adventures back into making maple syrup. Its been 20 years since I made maple syrup. Finally bought a place with some land and young maple trees.

Some of the Maple Syrup made in 2009

First Boil Underway


The first boil is underway.  My daughter came out to help keep the foaming under control. I won't have enough to draw any off but the pans sweetened and I will be able to draw syrup after the next run.  I will have to add a cupola to the sugar shack next year.  the steam was a little thick in there.  I did add a 24 inch box fan but it was not enough.
