Homemade Maine Maple Syrup
Our new home has given us a few rewards already. One is the art of making Maple Syrup. Our first attempt at farming, is our trees. We are taking the sap out of our tree's and making it into maple syrup. It is the most amazing thing ever. The local people in Maine even have a day, Maple Syrup Sunday. That was the day we tapped our first Maple tree. A few days later we made homemade Maple Syrup. One thing we learned is, it takes 40 gallons of sap to make 1 gallon of syrup. Wow alot of work for such Little treasure. Totally worth it. We boiled down about 3 gallons and got a few ounces. Amazing! The taste to die for. We will make more for sure.
