We Tapped our Maple trees last Friday. With the warm up sap will be flowing. It take about 40 gallons of sap to make 1 gallon of Maple syrup. I am optimistic we can get more than enough sap to make a big batch of Maple syrup for a pancake breakfast.
Placing spile into tree
Installed spile
Big trees can have up to 3 taps. We use tubing for big tree to condense sap to one bucket
Smaller trees we hang buckets on spile.
