Here's a cluster of nice trees we have been able to add this year.

Here’s a cluster of nice trees we have been able to add this year.

Who’d have thought it would be March 1st and no sap running yet.  Guess in days gone by this was not so uncommon and certainly in the northern reaches of NH it’s not unusual.  But for us it’s a first.  As the weather forecasters are saying, a slow melt to the snow would be good to avoid flooding and that would also help us through the month with temperatures that should be good for sap flow.  As with every year, we wait and see.
