Appreciate that maple syrup!
It takes a lot of work to make it: 40 litres of tree sap need to be boiled down to make just 1 litre of syrup!
We were reminded of this when we recently visited Fulton's sugar bush for a tour.
It was such fun!
Walking in the snowy woods - having a horse drawn wagon ride...
Tasting!! Lots of tasting! And chatting with the experts!
We saw how the boiling USED TO be done - in a large cauldron over an open fire.
I was tempted to buy their maple-flavoured mustard or ketchup... and the jams sweetened with maple syrup... (But I was trying to be "good"!)
Next time!!
