SINCE
1972,
we have taken pride in producing the best, purest maple
syrup that money can buy. In early spring, as daytime
temperatures rise above freezing, we tap several hundred
trees and hang buckets. Family and friends gather the
sap daily when the weather is favorable and boil it in
our traditional wood-fired evaporator, often late into
the night. |

FOR
EACH GALLON of syrup we make, about 40 gallons of water
have been boiled off as steam. It is important to us that
this energy-intensive process is fueled by wood from local
and sustainably managed forests, not fossil fuels.

 OUR
SYRUP meets the strictest color and density
standards, and boasts a superior delicate flavor
that reflects both the limestone soils of Mount
Equinox and our uncompromising emphasis on quality
at all stages of production. No defoamers, preservatives, or other chemicals are used. We still use traditional buckets, gather the sap by hand, and process the syrup in small batches to be sure our syrup is the highest quality. Our label is our own design and shows
some tools of the craft. |
