  • Maple Syrup season in New York is ending quickly. This season was a disappointing one resulting in us processing less than 2/3 of average crop yield. We already shut off the majority of our woods, however, we are hoping to boil one more night before officially calling it quits.

    LOVE the sweatshirt.
    When I first moved from New England to CA, I would have a fit because I would order pancakes with (what they called) maple syrup and it of course wasn't. They would argue with me -- yes, it's maple syrup. Took me a while to realize that much of the country simply didn't know what REAL maple syrup was.
    Thankfully, the Cracker Barrel chain became popular enough to introduce many people to the real thing (and then they too started faking it).

    I'm guessing you don't sell many 40 gallon drums of syrup to regular old John Smith type customers. Is there much competition in the wholesale market, where I'm guessing you sell to? And does your system allow you to produce different grades of syrup? Personally I like the real dark, real tasty grade. Plus its alittle less costly.
