Well, to this point in time, the Maple Syrup season has been a Bust. We should be in full swing now. The local news today said this was the coldest March in a 100 yrs here in Central NY. The coldest March was recorded in 1885. We're 7.9F below average this year. We started cutting firewood for the evaporators in early Jan. We hung 2150 buckets back in mid Feb., Presidents week, when we had extra help. We collected some sap about 15days ago, dumping a lot of it as it had soured in the buckets. gathered again last Friday. only got about 800gal. of sap. To date both runs have yielded 19gals. of dark amber syrup. Wooop Peee. We have had to light small maintainance fires twice to keep the small 4x24' evaporator from freezing solid, and have yet to fire the bigger 5x24' evaporator, this year. This cold hase to break soon, I hope. The weather watchers are talking maybe 50F by the weekend, but still in the 20's tomarrow.
