RE: In Search of More Sugar Maple Trees #fff
Oh man I would absolutely love to own some land with maple trees (or birch for that matter - birch syrup is delicious!) to make our own syrup. I hope your post inspires some people who do own land to locate some sugar maples and start tapping!

Thanks @tipu
Thanks for stopping by @carlgnash. This is a great activity for a time of year when it's just to cold yet to start the garden. I have never had birch syrup, but would love to try some. We have a large plantation of Black Walnut trees, and I have heard that syrup can be made from the sap of this tree as well. Most of the Black Walnut trees are still too young to tap, but in another 5 or 6 years many of them should be large enough to begin to extract the sap from them.
It would be really cool if someone were to be inspired by this blog, and give it a try.
Enjoy this festive time of year.
