I have been to several sugar shacks in Quebec. I'm from Maine, and Maple syrup is good here.
I did not know you made maple syrup too! We are Kentucky Maple syrup makers, Central Appalachia has a long tradition of maple sugar making…met you in Pikeville and you helped us change our growing methods to be market gardeners! Boil on! #sugaringinthesouth
I miss doing it as well. My family did it to when i was growing up around Sainte-Anne des plain/ Blainville Qc. Family and tradition
Suddenly I need one of those can sealers.
2023 my best year ever maple-ing.
I remember going to an old fashioned sugar shack like that when I was little. So interesting! The maple taffy was delicious!
5:48 miles of tubes, plastic ones, then boiled down...BPA concentrate, awesome you do it old fashioned way!
Thank you for sharing looks like it’s gonna have a great year coming up 😊
Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge about maple syrup,which I pour over everything!!!
Thank you for this vlog!
I could really feel the love you put in syrup making, and the cozyness of sharing this activity with your loved ones
thanks so much Bruno that really means a lot! ❤️
Thank you so much! That is the book I’ve had for years now, that I used when we first started making our syrup! Love it! 🤙 much love ❤️ ✌️
Thank you so much for making this video. I watched it with my boys (8 & 4 years old) and they really enjoyed it! We are reading the book "Miracles on Maple Hill" by Virginia Sorensen and they talk all about the sugaring season. Your video really brought the sugaring process to life! Thank you.
Wow thank you for the comment Kaylene! It really means a lot to us to read comments like this ❤️🍁
Nice little system. We used the bag method hung on the tree in Minnesota.
so nice
Nice video, well done!
Belles installations! Great place!
Always been fascinated by this process. Thanks for sharing with us JM👍🏼
Thank you!
Great video! The other day I watched a video about a Russian guy who settled in Northern Alberta, and he was making syrup from birch sap, which I understand is traditional in Russia and probably Scandinavia. He made an interesting observation: apparently the trees produce a lot more sap on windy days, and he was wondering if the trees used the swaying from the wind to pump up the sap from their roots. Have you noticed anything similar from maple trees?
Very interesting observation. I know sometimes sap will run more when there's a low pressure weather system in the area. Sometimes wind is a good indicator of changing weather and pressure systems, may have something to do with that as well. Worth investigating
I'm curious, who made the intro music?
You could have explained how to finish it or use the canning machine
Merci pour le partage Jean-Martin! Tu l'as dit, c'est un retour aux sources.
PS. Bon choix musical à la toute fin, George Brassens...
Thanks for the beautiful video :)
I've also heard (but not tried yet), that you can collect sap even just with cutting off a branch, so it's less damaging to the tree.
Yet again, I guess that if you don't do it every year to the same trees, and if you plunge the wound afterward, it's also not that damaging.
That is awesome! thanks for sharing!😊👍
Belle ptite toune irlandaise ! Jpensais voir sortir un Leprechaun derrière un arbre 🤣🤣
I didn’t know you did maple syrup
What should I do if my unopened gallon of maple syrup is building pressure just sitting on the shelf?
something got into it and is fermenting?
open it up
heat it
filter it
re-can it
check the boil temp, you might not have cooked it long enough. 219F or 104C
👍🇺🇦
The Amish near me can the maple water that comes out of the tree and drink it in the heat of summer for an electrolyte boost. Of course, they cook it down to syrup as well. A little known fact is that the best maple syrup in the known universe comes from Ohio. Nothing else comes close.
the best come from your own woods
