Skin Care Maple Syrup
Our Maple Sugar Season at Weil Farms The maple season in Connecticut and Maine usually begins around mid-February and lasts until the first of April. At this time we head to the woods with our drills, buckets, and plastic tubing to gather sap from the sugar maples. Once the March weather produces consecutive days above freezing, and nights that go below freezing, the sap will flow. The sap must be collected daily. We set around 1000 taps in our sugar maple trees. We then collect the sap from the trees to produce our high quality maple syrup. On an average day we collect around 500 gallons of raw sap. The sap is then sent to the sugar house. We fire our wood fired evaporator and boil down the raw sap into pure maple syrup. It takes almost 40 gallons of sap to produce one gallon of pure maple syrup. We pride ourselves on our small operation which produces an extremely high quality product.
