Sugaring, Miami Co. Ohio - Todd Roeth

Sugaring on the Farm

When the Sugar Maples thaw and their sap starts to flow, my father has taken to setting in them his stainless steel spiles the last couple of springs. What comes at the end of this process is hard to match. Miami County Maple Magic, we call it. The only ingredients are tree sap and patience. The long slow boil is eminently rewarded.
