This past Friday it was time to start Maple Syrup Making '21 with the 'Tennessee Tap.' Like I said I was encouraged when the holes I drilled were damp from the start. However, to my surprise, the tree closest to the house has produced the most sap. So much so I had to empty its receptacle. The other tree had put a decent amount, but there was just as much dripping out of the tree. Anyway, I did something that I have never done in six years...put in a second tap on a tree. I did this in hopes of catching some of the excesses that this Maple Tree is producing. As always I will blog with updates...
