If globull warming is actually something, we should get more syrup. The addition of carbon dioxide will enhance plant growth and there will be more maples, bigger maples, and more sap for sure.

I collected it one year from the 4 trees in my front yard in Indiana. It ran very sporadically, aligned with the temperature. It takes a freezing night and then a warm day. Then it will run. If you delay getting your buckets set you might miss it. Some seasons are longer than others.

Then I took all 50 gallons of sap in the house and started to boil it down. Do NOT do this. All the wallpaper started to come down. But it was delicious.

Hurricane Sandy came through and scared me into taking all of those trees out.
