We have been slowly making progress on our Sugar Shack. If all goes well we hope to have the ends closed up in the next 2 weeks. Sometime in September we are expecting the delivery of the evaporator system and that installation will begin.
Syrup season is just around the corner. We still have many more Maple trees to connect up this year, if all goes well we hope to add another 100 taps. Bring on Winter.

We’re having pancakes for dinner tonight…with maple syrup a la Pothole Farm!
Be careful, you could exhaust your supply in one sitting with your tribe. More for you this March.
Sonny,
How sweet it is! Hope all well with you and your family. I took your advice and I’m not looking back. Still in Virginia, will be full time at the beach next spring.
Don
Glad to hear it Don, be sure to find a hobby to keep yourself occupied. Soon you will be surf fishing from the beach.
