sugarbush syrup

The phone rang this morning and we received an invite to visit our friends at the "Sugarbush" for an afternoon of sap collecting and syrup making. The weather could not have been better and a good time was had by all.

Owen collects his first bucket.



Logan carefully pours sap from one bucket to another.



After running the sap through a filter, it is immediately cooked down over a roaring fire. The resulting maple syrup has a smoky flavor that is absolutely delicious.
