MAPLE SUGARING MAZE


I drove by this maze of hoses on the maple trees gathering sap to make maple syrup. I had to back up because I couldn't believe how many hoses were going from tree to tree. I don't think the photo does it justice, it was a labyrinth of white and blue hoses for a few acres. I just wonder how much sap they collect per day?

That is interesting, using a bulk collecting system over idividual pails at each tree. Are the trees grown in rows like an orchard, that would make it easy to walk between all the trees to check on the hoses.
