So was at the cabin with dad this weekend and suddenly got the urge to try making maple syrup. Never really paid attention before but there's tons of maple trees on his property...figure it's something else that we can maybe do together.
Anyone do this themselves? My biggest question was how long it takes to collect sap...like could you tap and run tubes to buckets one weekend and go up the next to collect/boil? Or does it collect pretty fast where you could say tap on Fri collect/boil Saturday into Sunday?
Just trying to get a feel time wise more or less how I could make it work since it's about 3 hrs away
