Making maple syrup for fun in Grantham, New Hampshire.

45 gallons!
It's been a busy few days...about 15 gallons each day (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday). Lots of sap is nice, but it's hard when it comes all at once! Of course, with the additional taps, this is somewhat expected. Will have to boil soon!
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!
