~~ Tap tap tap for my sweet sap!
Get out your buckets and with a little luck
and you fill it up with sweet, sweet, sap! ~~
In the spring when nights freeze and days are thawed, maple sap flows out anywhere from 1-2 gallons a day. We take great care not to hurt the trees any more than to drill just a small hole to lightly pound in the tap and hang the bucket (in our case empty milk jugs). Every time we collect the sap we remember to thank the trees for giving us delicious sap to make sweet sweet maple syrup!
