My aunt called on Friday to say that the season had started in Vermont. They were tapping and boiling two months ahead of norm. I checked the weather and, on Friday, it looked like the temperature would be back into the lower 30's next week. I would wait a week to tap our trees. And waiting the week, we would still be three weeks ahead of our usual schedule. Yesterday when I checked the long range forecast the temperatures were warming up.
So, yesterday we went out to tap just one. That tap set, the sap gushed out. Plans changed and we tapped them all. Each tap delivering that wonderful liquid before the bucket could be hung.
The season is upon us.
