Sandy Glen Farm and Forage

Most people know you can tap Maple trees, collect the sap and boil it down to syrup.... but most people have no idea how many different kinds of trees can be tapped to do this! Our favorite is Black Walnut...which is VERY fortunate because we have over 150 of them that are big enough to tap! This is the introductory video for our 3 part series on tapping Black Walnut Trees for syrup. In this video, I explain the supplies necessary, give a brief overview of the process and share how to properly sanitize the equipment you will be using. Be sure to check back for Part 2 where we take you with us as we tap the trees, collect the sap and do the initial boil and Part 3 where we take the concentrated sap and do the final boil to produce a buttery, nutty, amazing sweet syrup!

A gentle snow has begun to fall and it is a beautiful day! When you rely on solar, that means keeping your panels clear! After awhile outdoors, I take you inside for a peek around our little Off-Grid cabin in the woods. * * * * * ____________________ CREDITS: Acoustic Love by LesFM https://LesFM.net/ (CC BY 3.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ Music promoted by https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/ Warm Memories - Emotional Inspiring Piano by Keys of Moon | https://soundcloud.com/keysofmoon Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Music promoted by https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/

My tripod is apparently falling apart and allows more wiggle than my image stabilization can compensate for!) * * * * * ____________________ CREDITS: Acoustic Love by LesFM https://LesFM.net/ (CC BY 3.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ Music promoted by https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/ Warm Memories - Emotional Inspiring Piano by Keys of Moon | https://soundcloud.com/keysofmoon Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Music promoted by https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/

We are very excited to be launching our channel! Ten years ago, David and I embarked on an unexpected journey. What started as a little dream has become SO much more! We invite you to join us in the next chapter of our off-grid journey! Once we started staying in our little cabin, we never wanted to be anywhere else. So, we sold our modern home and just about everything we owned to move to our little off-grid cabin in the woods. We now have all the comforts of modern life blended with the simplicity and peace of times past. We are so blessed to be able to spend our days building our dream of an off-grid homestead and farm business. There is so much beauty and joy in the purposeful nature of this lifestyle! If you are looking for professional videography, this probably isn't the channel for you. If you want to share our joy in each new discovery and learn with us as we tackle projects big and small, come along as we build this dream! ----------------------------------- CREDITS ----------------------------------- Music: Acoustic Love by LesFM https://lesfm.net/ music promoted by https://chosic.com/free-music/all/ creative commons CC BY 3.0

When I am getting oh so anxious to start my seeds, it is great to have such a wonderful distraction! Most people know Maple syrup comes from the sap pf maple trees, but most are unfamiliar with the fact that there are a lot of other trees that can be tapped for the same purpose. Our favorite is the Black Walnut....so it is very fortunate we have so many! In this video series, we will take you through the process from the basic supplies and prep work, to tapping and collecting the sap and the final step of boiling it down to that sweet, sweet treat, Black Walnut Syrup 😋 -------------------------- CREDITS Music: Inspiring Acoustic Guitar by LesFM https://lesfm.net Promoted by https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/ Creative Commons CC BY 3.0
