Pumping Sap
A beautiful day to collect sap. This 3″ pump definitely beats carrying 5 gallon buckets!

If the ten day forecast holds we’re going to be swimming in sap for a while! Yesterday and today provided a nice cold break for us to catchup and prep brass road for tapping, we should be collecting from all four properties this weekend!
We just finished setting up all of our webcams, now we can check on our storage tanks and pump houses remotely. Each camera uploads a photo to our website every few minutes using either our home wifi or a prepaid wireless hotspot. No more restless nights worrying about pumps being down or tanks overflowing, just restless nights from fixing pumps and emptying tanks!
