Well, my finger slipped when spelling maple, BUT, we are putting up white smoke/steam out of our chapel. HeHe.
We made our first marketable maple syrup yesterday afternoon after a week of sub freezing temps day and night. As I stated this is a old operation, using yesteryears tech. Had a big crew show up Monday afternoon, family and friends. Also hired a couple of Amish lads to help. Collected about 2000 gal of sap. We fired the evaporators about 10:00AM and ran to 11:00PM. made 19.25 gal syrup. Temp remained in mid 40s overnight with moderate to heavy rain. Snow shrank slush. Tomarrow we hope to gather again and refire the evaporators.
All of you who e-mailed me will receive a price list and ordering info. tomarrow. Thanks so much for the intrest.
