March is coming.  Anticipation for the new maple syrup season is building.  We have had a “proper” winter again:  snowy and cold December through Feburary.  In December alone we had about 42″ of snow.   And through the end of February the total is 78″.   5″ to 10″ of snow is actually forecast for WI today and tomorrow. 

 

The buckets are washed.  We are planning on making a supply run this week.  We need bottles.  And a part for our filter press.   Hopefully next week we will start tapping.    We never know what the weather will bring but we are always hopeful.

 

You can follow along here as we will post updates of our daily activities.
