Sap is flowin about as hard as it does today.
Flowing real good here too. Most of what’s in my buckets was frozen this morning so I decided to wait until tomorrow for the first boil. I may bring everything in to thaw later if I need to.

🍳 Cook 'em up!
Yep. Fillets for the elderly inlaws and us.
Someone was fishing where we normally put the carcasses back in to the harbour and his eyes lit up at the bucket full so the heads and wings went to him to feed his whanau (family) too.

Rolling along this morning. Have around 60 gallons to get through. Shouldn’t be too bad…View attachment 484170
Stopped by 'pecker's on my way back down from up north. He was running a little more than that out of an ibc through his barrel arch.

I have about ten more gallons to go. With this weeks weather climbing into the sixties I may only boil one more time. Hoping for one or two more good runs.

I heard that guy likes to burn used dent pullers when boiling the sap for optimal flavor.
His box was fully loaded when I arrived
MAPLE syrup? or tree sap in general?
Can only speak on maple

Yah there's a good chance this week will be it here too.
