Because we had travel plans and declining physical ability, DH decided to forego tapping any trees this year. But then DD was here one day when the assessor happened to stop in.
He could not see any trees tapped in our woods and wanted to ask about our intentions. Then he explained that collecting maple sap does give us a small break on our property taxes!
So, DD volunteered “WE WILL be tapping trees!
Rather than 150 trees, this years total is only 20 trees. That combined with a late start and all the wonky weather patterns, our yield will be quite small. Probably only about 6 quarts.
But …. Hey … It qualifies us for the tax break!
