Tapping Maple Trees & A Beautiful Gift Arrived

I am still tapping maple trees for the early season maple syrup harvest. And a package arrived with a beautiful gift inside. Read the full article: http://www.thedoityourselfworld.com/articles/article.php?id=11418

I found a way to make tapping the trees go faster since we have so many trees here to tap now. I am cutting a bunch of tubing first. Then I drill and prepare a mess of the sap jug lids. Next I press the taps into the tubing and then put the tubes into the lids. Next I put the lids on the jugs. And finally I take a handful of these out into the forest to tap the maple trees.

I tap a bunch until I run out of the prepared sets and then do it all over again.

Someone sent us a package with two homemade Off Grid Project pins and a beautiful hand drawn family portrait including Baby Cat and Felix. This is so well done and we greatly appreciate it. We are going to frame it for sure. Thank you.
