Tapping Trees for Maple Syrup & Setting Up Our Barrel Stove and Canvas Tent for a Boil Down!

Join me while I tap 30+ Sugar Maples on our property in early March - the earliest we've ever tapped!
I hope you enjoy the video and stay tuned for more!
Let me know in the comments what kind of stuff you're hoping to see on this channel. I plan to do some lifestyle stuff and how-tos which will be more of a "how I do it" because I'm not expert!

    Yay Tori! I am subscribed and look forward to seeing the Baird's Family life through your eyes. I was hooked on the last family overland and canoe trip because of the very real emotional experiences you shared with us on camera. I love being outside and doing small bush craft projects and short camping adventures, so I am all in with your channel. Good luck and, like all youtubers, you will learn as you go.

Really enjoy his own achievments but love the videos of the whole family, with you making a big contribute (and the kids ofcourse). Looking forward to new stuff from you! Big love from Sweden!

    Hi Tori We're still in sap season here in Northern MN. Our temps dipped back below freezing so the sap is frozen in the bags yet. I love this time of year! We use a barrel stove and finish off the syrup in the house once it cooks down and is just about ready to finish.

    Never tapped trees, nor seen how it’s done. My Dad always said “A question is not dumb, unless you already knew the answer.” So, here is my question - I can’t identify many tree types. So, what do you look for to know it’s a maple tree?

  • @ToriGoesOutside

    That’s definitely not a stupid question! Especially since we’re tapping in early spring before it has leaves, you have to be able to identify it based on the bark and the branches. Here’s a good article on how to identify them: ferrinbrookfarm.wordpress.com/2016/02/12/identifying-maple-trees-in-winter-to-tap-for-maple-syrup-2/
