#maplesap — Public Fediverse posts

So.....
#MapleSap officially "buddy" in northern #TwinCities as of last Thursday.
First Season over.
Damn.
Out of around 19 gallons of sap gathered from four trees, starting in late March, we burned about 38 ounces of sap and came away with 12 ounces of #MapleSyrup
Lots of lessons learned! Start earlier, careful cooking at the end, and also, i have another 4 or 5 trees to tap next year. 60-80 gallons of sap is not out of the question. Maybe 2 gallons of syrup if we do it right? More?

Finished capped bottled
Another syrup season
Yielding sweet rewards

Time for boiling maple sap. My friend Seth is collecting from 51 taps/buckets and the sap has been flowing strongly the last couple days. Looking at the warmer weather ahead this might be the last heavy flow.

Lots more details in the alt-text!
