Mountain View Farm

The Maple Syrup season is in full force, and what a strange season it's been.  It started okay and about on time --around the 2nd week of February is average in Connecticut, but it got warm fast and then went cold for a number of weeks, completly shuting off the sap.  Last week was the first full week of the classic 20 degree nights and 40 degree days--needed for good sap flow.  All in All the quality of the syrup is excellent this year--because of the cold, but the quantity of the sap is low, so not too much sryup being made.  It's fun though, and makes a great gift and nice addition to the farm stand.  Certified Organic Syrup For Sale!
