Driveway Improvements

07/22/2020 | Posted by Hailee Leveto |

Over the weekend we rented an excavator to both widen the driveway and improve drainage. This will help it stand up to endless trips from our 65,000 pound sap truck each maple season.

We dug out both sides of the 4/10 mile long gravel drive (encountering a lot of roots and stumps). One side was left open as a ditch and the other filled with stone. Check out some pictures of the process below!

Building pallets like a boss!

Who needs a gym membership when you have pallets of maple syrup to build?!

Each box contains 4 gallons and weighs just under 50 lbs. We can only put 30 boxes on a pallet, otherwise it would be too heavy for our tractor to load on the truck!
The pallet will be sent to an Amazon warehouse early next week along with two more full of maple sugar and cream.

Last week we had a record cream making day, ending up with over 500 pounds! We built a pyramid out of 385 and sent the rest immediately to Amazon’s warehouses.
