Maple syrup time?

[JMatthews]

On the way back from Kitchener I saw a couple of trailers with signs for fresh maple syrup for sale. I'm pretty sure the sap hasn't been running yet. However, conditions look good for next week. Good luck to anyone tapping trees.

Should be starting run next week up here.

Those trailers are probably unloading their leftover supply. Still better than what you can get in a store.

Funny when we went to Maui last winter. My wife went first thing to Costco to get groceries. People were loading their whole carts with pineapples. Then you would see them on the side of the road with signs reading "fresh pineapples." It wasn't pineapples season yet but they were making a good profit on those store bought pineapples to unsuspecting tourists.

Just got back from Hawaii a couple of weeks ago. Pineapples are a year round crop there. They are no longer grown as a large scale commercial crop due to high labour costs in processing.

I can't comment on the Kitchener area but Niagara has had intermittent sap runs the past 3 weeks. I have been a little slow getting started but I will be boiling today.

The Mennonite/amish market gardener at Scone (just around the corner from you ) had pails hanging off the trees in his front yard a week and a half ago when I was past there. just sayin

A friend of mine just a kilometer away from here has already boiled and stored 6, 38 gallon barrels of syrup this season so far , it stopped running a couple of days ago but is starting to run again today.
He has 3500 trees tapped and is running a vacuum system.

We are almost done down here. If the Temps stay above freezing next week we will be done.Dutch

Tapping our bush Tues. Was going to start today but I had an MRI.

Tomorrow I need to feed the bees.

A run of sap has already happened in the London area.

Of course it will be starting this week around here, two hunting shows to do back to back over the next two weeks ... really hoping I don't miss out on the boil this year. I make enough for family and friends and there will undoubtedly be some long faces if I miss the run ....
