Made another 1/2 pint of syrup. This is good, seeing as we finished off the 1/4 pint I made a week ago. Usually, I don't bother with such trace amounts, but there is something wrong with buying maple syrup when you make your own!
The weather just isn't cooperating. It rained all day today and it's been warm. Better luck next week - the forecast is mediocre. Best of luck to those of you sugaring.

Making maple syrup for fun in Grantham, New Hampshire.
Welcome
Welcome to this blog about making maple syrup. Up here in New England, we are surrounded by sugar maples, but only a small percentage are tapped each year. Read here about my second season of backyard sugaring. I'm hoping to make maple syrup as a hobby and provide enough for ourselves and maybe some gifts. Please leave your comments!

Yes, with all the rain -- the sap flow came to a stand still. But we had the 40/20 weather prior to the warm up to give us a gallon plus on our first boil this season.
Here's praying for sugaring weather.
