    As it drips from the tree, 50 gallons of Maple sap will produce one gallon of syrup. in Homer, Alaska this spring Jake Beaudoin has had to evaporate 160 gallons of birch sap to produce a single gallon of the precious Birch syrup. That’s a lot of evaporating. (more…)

Gotta run for now, more later.
