The syrup season has officially started and so far, the syrup is looking and tasting delicious. Not sure how much syrup we'll be getting as the weather is not your typical weather for sap to be running. It's getting too warm, and the temps are just not ideal for sap to be running. Hopefully we'll get a sugar snow, or even rain for a reset. Because we didn't have really any snow to speak of the frost went pretty deep. Most everyone around the area is saying the same thing, they are not getting the amount of sap they normally get.
But every year is always different, and we never know what it will bring, so we always try to keep some over from the previous year just in case of seasons like this. Though it's not over yet we shall see what we get.
It's so pretty! I know this means lots of work for you though.

ReplyDeleteHi, we are not getting as much as well.. we will take what we can get. :-)
ReplyDeleteI love that you tap your own. We get ours from a local friend. So much better than anything in the stores, to me anyway. LOVE that you do your own. That's on my list to do someday. So cool.
