We’ve hit two important checkpoints for our new building. Dreamscapes has readied the site, making quick work on dozens of stumps, 100+ yards of topsoil, and an equal amount of 2A bank gravel. Cussewago Truss has delivered twelve 56′ trusses, any longer and it may have gotten tricky coming up our driveway! Now we just have to wait another two weeks until the Kauffman brothers, who we’ve bought syrup from for years, can make it over to start the actual pole barn.

A friend of ours who helped out during the 2021 maple season flew his plane over the farm Saturday and shared this picture! It’s neat to see the property from above. You can see where the new pole barn is going, just above the solar panels, we’ll have pictures of the readied foundation for our next post!

At Nova Maple Syrup we stay busy year round in the sugar shack. We know that free time will be hard to come by November through April, so this time of year we’re bulking up on packaged products and storing them in our cooler. This month we’ve been hard at work packing 3/6 pound sugars and gallon jugs. Lots more to prep, but it’s a good start for mid-June!
