Fresh maple syrup, direct from the tree? I’m jealous!

Am going to try to start tomatoes from seed inside the house. Hopefully the gophers and the blister beetles will leave them alone this year.

Most all of us are jealous of this! ;)

Beau has been ‘sugaring’ for 4 years now, and finally has it down to a science. He boils it down outside over wood on a special pan that has ‘chambers’ in it. He makes some really good Maple Syrup, though at times leaves me with a sticky mess of a kitchen on the final boil down. ;)

Once he gets the electrical finished in the barn remodel, that won’t be a problem. I can set him up down there with a used electric stove. ;)
