Tapping Today, March 17th

Well we are finally getting into the woods to tap today.  Tapping reports thus far have been that the trees have not really started and buckets that have been put out in the St. Croix Valley have not yielded little if any sap thus far.  This weekend’s temperatures  should loosen up those trees as a 60 degree forecast is set for Sunday and cooler weather after that.  As all of you know we are not in control of the weather and we put the buckets/bags/tubing out there and hope!  We had 4-6 inches of snow in the woods two days ago and that has most likely diminished, so I am hopeful.

 

Be Safe out there, Don
