Vermont Maple syrup
 
The maple syrup season in Vermont was short and sweet.

My neighbors, Dana Brothers, produced slightly over 500 gals. of syrup and burned over 35 cord of fire wood---the old fashion way.

I will be bring 2 cases of first run fancy grade to the PGCA tent on Saturday the 28th for sale @ $20.00 per quart container. The proceeds go to the PGCA coffers check book.

Thanks for supporting the PGCA.

I want a quart!

Richard Flanders 04-06-2018 07:13 PM

35 cords would heat my house for well over 10yrs! And $20/qt is a reasonable price for it.

Dean Romig 04-06-2018 07:38 PM

That's about 1/2 price for grade A fancy.

I’ll take a jug.

The going rate here is $18/qt for first run light syrup. My neighbor makes about 500 gals in a wood fired evaporator which aside from what he sells locally goes to Vermont. I actually prefer the late run darker syrup. I think it has more maple flavor and is considerably cheaper. The last I heard NY was the largest producer in the country.

Allan, if you're driving down 93 to the Southern I'm just a mile or two off the highway. You could swing by and drop off a quart if you're so inclined.

Your Pal, Dean

I am sure many people share your post, however, I am doing this as a gesture to support the PGCA members that attend the Southern & Foundation with the proceeds going into the PGCA check book.
No one has complained about the quality/grade of the syrup in the past and I always try to bring down "FIRST RUN "syrup.

Dean

I will be going to Nashua within the next few week, I can meet you there for a syrup pickup. Going to Maine in a few hours,will return on Tuesday--I will call you.
I will be heading west toward Troy,NY to start my trip south on interstate 87.

Best to all
Allan
