Our Process
So this year we got to make maple syrup and sell it, but the last few years we couldn't do it due to Covid so this year we get to have students in different teams like sugar bush, media marking, field office, candies and confections and the news room will be making this whole thing work so we can get it out to you guys and sell it to you.
This is the process on how we tap our trees. First we measure the tree so we know how many taps we should put in. After that we get the drill, there is a red piece of tape on the drill bit so we know when to stop drilling. We drill a hole into the tree and then get the tree shavings out. Finally, we grab the tap and tube, give it three good hits into the tree and set up the bucket, then move onto another tree.
