Ricky and Anna Marie came up North with us on Saturday and mommy has always wanted to go to this Maple Farm and they were excited to come with us.......It was pretty cool to see how they cook the maple syrup and we ended up with a couple Quarts to go home with. This little guy, about nine years old, is the sixth generation of Maple farmers and he gave us a tour of everything. It was really cool to have him showing us around. He was awesome and pretty smart too.....A good day, the gals seemed to have a great day as they went to Gunstock and went tubing. No broken bones so thats always a good day.
This truck here with the big tub on it is the first step in the process and all the sap is tubed into here and the the hoses shift the sappy sugar into the maple house before its separated by a steamy process that puts the sugar on one side where the water gets evaporated into steam (see picture above.)..We enjoyed ourselves today.
