Our annual spring tradition in Canada continues with MAPLE SYRUP production. We collect sap and boil our first run with a MASSIVE haul of 9 POUNDS of maple SUGAR! We do it on an open fire! UPDATE: I'm now up to over 25 lbs of SUGAR! I do a shout-out to: Wilder Life 38: 23: Aaron Nelson: River Bend Longbows: I'll show you how to tap a tree, talk about the right conditions for sap flow, the concentration of sugar in sap, how we collect and boil the sap from start to finish! I'll show you how maple syrup is made using a cheap homemade evaporator! I'll show you have to make a homemade maple syrup evaporator for cheap or FREE! I'll introduce my real brother and tour his modern homestead, the location of the Native American garden and show you all the firewood he collects for free, and how he stores and cuts it. I'll update you on the goat gut pile and what of it remains! 4: 15. We build a sap boiling pit with salvaged bricks, an old stainless steel vat from a commercial kitchen and some metal pipes. We do almost all of the boil with fire wood and an open fire! Watch us collect sap using a hacked up suzuki turned sap trolley! I talk about how native American people never really boiled sap until Europeans arrived. Stick around until the end to see what Holden does with his share of the maple sugar!

I live on Vancouver Island where we have Western Big Leaf Maple which can be tapped from December to early March. I get after it every season. When your sap freezes the sugars concentrate in the remaining liquid. not in the ice crystals. You can pull out the ice with minimal loss of sugar and save some time and heat energy when evaporating. I know a guy who puts his sap pails in the freezer until they are half frozen in order to concentrate the sap before boiling it off. That's his step one.

Natives didnt take anything from nature for the sake of money. Natives only took what was needed for their families and they always gave thanks for everything. Get your facts straight. And yes natives did have pots. They made their own. Stop looking on the internet for answers about native history. You're not going to find it! This false information is so upsetting. If it wasnt for natives, your ancestors would've died of starvation and disease.

your son seems smarter than MOST adults already when it comes to this kind of stuff. I learned how maple syrup was made just now. at 24 years old. Your sons like 12 and knows more about it than me.

natives used to use clay pots before steel for heating the sap and birch bark conyainers for collecting, but ya they made in greater quantity then you say before the Europeans arrived

Bean is one hardy little toy poodle. I-ve got mine sitting with me in NZ ordering my new chickens. Can-t wait. We don-t do maple syrup sadly. Love the videos ---

For your garden you can use a Rototiller to move the ground and prepare for planting it can also mix the manure into the ground for you. Take care
