Description
There is only a single tap on this sugar maple tree. It was big enough for two taps but sometimes less is more.
I recorded our footsteps in the snow around the base of the maple from when we installed the tap. I like the colours of the snow and the shadows on a bright winter day. My goal was to capture a bit of nostalgic, Canadian history.
There is a lot of work to making maple syrup. It takes about 40 parts of sap to make one part of maple syrup. That being said, there is nothing quite as sweet as enjoying the fruits of your own, honest labours. My son wanted to tap more sugar maple trees in 2022 so that is exactly what we did.
These are the old style taps which are still very effective.
