So, having wrapped up our 2019 production season with our Good Friday boil, all we can say is, "Wow!" and we're filled with gratitude. This one was definitely a year for the record books. Our yield of 0.87 liters of maple syrup per tap was the highest ever for our woods, both as Sugar Moon and during the Boondock days when Bob had the place (1973-1996). The weather worked in our favour and the trees were incredibly generous with sap that had a sugar content of between 2.5 and 3 % for almost all of the season. Every year we put in our taps and wait to see what happens. We take the good with the bad because that's how this all works. After all, this sugaring thing is truly a gift.
If you’ve been waiting for the dark end-of-season syrup, we’ve got it. Come on up and pick up 4 litres, 2 litres or 1 litres. Can’t make it to the farm? Order online.
Now we all carry on to finish April and move into the late spring and summer seasons. We’re open year round and expect a busy and fun year. Best wishes to all of you and Happy Spring from us, Scott and Quita❤️
