    Syrup from the Twin Cities

    Ive got lots of birch at the hunting shack in various states of decline. Ive heard as high as 100:1 for birch syrup and has to be cooked at a simmer vs a rolling boil. I think ill just buy it

    Syrup from the Twin Cities

    Boxelder is often reported to have butterscotch tones for flavor. I dont know general ratios for boxelder. Lots of reports of high sugar content (4%) with our odd spring in the TC metro. Trees are flowered and still producing "clean" sap. Its a weird year for syrup

    Tree Work Vehicles

    You can. A guy used to have one off an atv trailer, so maybe 8-10ft boom? Mounted to back of a flatbed trailer. I remember looking into it a handful of years back but was too expensive for my needs
