Incredible Sap Day

Wow. This morning when we went out to check the bags, most were over half full. It had frozen hard last night and we were promised a toasty day today. Perfect sap flow weather. Doug brought a group Junior High students, and they went right to work collecting the sap. They collected more sap than we had in all the rest of the month! Thank you!

Then Donna and I went to Minneapolis to visit the Childrens House classrooms and bring the maple syrup story to them. When I returned tonight I was amazed that the bags were half full again! We will be boiling this weekend for sure. Please check in to schedule a time to come out and help.

P.S. We seeded the bell peppers, hot peppers, eggplant, and okra for the garden today. They are all happy on the heat mat. Any requests for veggies? Post a comment.
