Dan McCullough<p>Our maple syrup season has ended. We tapped our tree on Feb 22, which was a month later than normal. This winter in Massachusetts was consistently below 38° which is not ideal for sap flow. </p><p>We harvested 28 liters of sap which after boiling down, gave us a little over a pint of syrup. This really drives home why it’s so expensive!</p><p>Sap Totals:<br>2025 February 22 - March 23 = 28 liters<br>2024 February 1 - March 17 = 30 liters<br>2023 January 22 - March 12 = 36 liters</p><p><a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/MapleSugaringMonday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MapleSugaringMonday</span></a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/MapleSyrup" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MapleSyrup</span></a></p>

Isaac<p>I was propositioned by an old lady today.</p><p>While emptying a sap tank, a car pulled up. Old lady rolled down her windows and asked "Can I ask you a question?"</p><p>"Sure!" I replied and walked closer.</p><p>She then says "You can tap my trees."</p><p>Thankfully, it wasn't a euphemism and she was just a neighbor who would be OK with me making syrup from her trees too.</p><p>So, I'll bring her some of this year's <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/maplesyrup" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>maplesyrup</span></a> and check out her property.

Isaac<p>My little <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/maplesyrup" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>maplesyrup</span></a> operation has made it past the 1000 gallons of sap mark. Long night boiling tonight. Not a great season, and the forecast is looking poor enough that it won't improve it a ton. Started a bit late and took a while to get going due to frost in the ground. We'll keep plugging along as best we can though. Making something good of this world.</p>
Arthur Gron<p>Naturally forming maple syrup icicles! </p><p>The Manitoba maple was pruned at the beginning of winter, now with the freezing-thawing March weather, it is forming these maple icicles. </p><p>Never seen this before.
