After another long day, the wood is stacked, fire is hot and the temperature is rising. Steam billows from the evaporator as Google plays fancy dinner jazz music in background and the wood crackles. Time for a break, all this work has got me hungry about to grab something to eat before the night shift! Anyone want to stop by for a candlelight dinner? #maplesyrup #maplestory #maplesyrupseason #sugarshack #dinnerideas #forest #forest_captures #canada #canadian #fire #sappysongs #weekendgetaway #airbnb #komoka #ldnont #ontario (at Fernwood Hills) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bvfpf-8HDMW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ovmi8qfsutz1

The sun begins to set on our little sugar shack here at @fernwoodhills Another day complete, but the night shift is just getting going! Another 350 gallons to boil off by morning to make way for today's sap. Still another week at least of good syrup making weather ahead! Anyone want to stop by for a tour or help me collect a few buckets or chop wood just let me know! #mapleweekend #mapleseason #maplesyrup #sap #sugarshack #forest #sunset #canadian #komoka #ldnont #ontario (at Fernwood Hills) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvczORQHyH5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=uzo2a8zlo546

Good morning everyone! The sun rises here in the forest revealing more nearly overflowing sap buckets and a maple leaf taking a early morning dip after a windy but warm weekend here at @fernwoodhills this amazing run of maple syrup making continues. Off to collect before I start the long list of actual work. #maplesyrup #mapleseason #maple #canadian #mapleweekend #goodmorning #sunrise #forest #pixel3 #phonephotography #komoka #ldnont #ontario (at Fernwood Hills) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvbfJ8-nGAL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ti9zjhdjq8wz

Is it worth it? You tell me! Another extraction and bottling day here @fernwoodhills In this batch, 21 gallons of fresh boiling hot maple syrup pours out of the evaporator at 219.5f 66 Brix as the sun sets on another busy day of maple syrup making. #maplesyrup #liquidgold #maplestory #mapleseason #sunset #syrup #canadian #springtime #pixel3 #phonephotography #photographer #komoka #ldnont #ontario (at Fernwood Hills) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvXwxENnrNG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=117s02mvggbk6

After a week and a half of a wild run of constant bucket collecting, firewood moving, steamy nights and sticky days, a break! Over 12000 litres later the evaptorator falls silent and the axes stop swinging, the temps fell below 0 for just long enough for us to get all caught up on boiling. Not for long though as the temps just crossed the freezing mark again. A few more hours for the buckets to fill and then back at it! #maplesyrup #maplestory #forest #woodworking #axe #goodmorning #sunrise #maple #canadian #sappystory #pixel3 #phonephotography #komoka #ldnont #ontario (at Fernwood Hills) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvWpv6WnM9s/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3646taffpdqd
