Drilling, Tapping and Tubing

New tap holes are drilled each year, strategically placed to prevent hurting the tree from where taps have been in previous years.

Plastic taps are secured into the maple tree, and connected to the tubing

All tubing and tapping must be approved by the dog.


And then the sap joins the main, black line and heads to the collection tank at the bottom of the hill.
