More Sugarin'

This time we visited Anita & Brian (and Clara) to see their impressive maple syrup operation.

Here is the home-made evaporator, with 4 "beds", and the barrel of sap:


The cheap labour, paid in sips of syrup:


Brian, keeping an eye on the evaporation, and tasting the sap.


Anita doing her favourite task:


Clara, Julia and Ella going to collect more sap:


Good stuff!


Wondering how to get it out of there (there was a pump).


Some of the amazing finished product, on the left is the early-season syrup, and on the right is what is being made by now.


Thanks guys!
