North Road Sugarworks- Maple Syrup

Do you think you could work with your spouse 24/7? Chase and I worked at putting in some mainline fittings this week and also rehung some wire that was down from tree damage. Chase is the best teacher- he is kind, he is patient and he waits until I’ve done the entire job incorrectly before telling me it is wrong and I need to do it all over again. He says that’s how you learn best. We are hoping to begin tapping by next week! Crazy to think the season is almost here. ... #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #maplesyrup #familyfarm #farmingcouple #carhartt

***UPDATE: SOLD**** Cow chores with my favorite farmer! We will have half a beef share available mid March if anyone is interested you can send us a message. Pasture raised and grain finished. Cash is working hard to make sure our beef has just the right amount of marbling- a real fine herdsman he is!

We hear all the time that comparison is the thief of joy. And while social media makes it difficult to avoid comparison, we intend to do just that in 2021. The only thing we will be comparing our journey to is where we’ve been. And we’ve been through a helluva lot the last few years. For the last decade we have boiled with an evaporator that was updated here and there when parts needed replacing. Swipe to see. It did what it needed to do, we made tasty #maplesyrup and lots of... it- but as we have been focusing on sap yield and time in the woods, we were due for an upgrade. Although this evaporator is the same size, the output should more than triple for us in terms of gallons of syrup made per hour. We are so excited and PROUD of this new addition. It’s long overdue and hey, who doesn’t like shiny new things? #maplestory So I need to know- have any of you seen an evaporator up close and personal? I can’t wait to show you! #thankfulthursdays #treetotable #puremaplesyrup #REALmaplesyrup #maplesyrupseason2021 #maplesyrupseason #modernfarmer #femalefarmers #mompreneurlife #smallbusinessadvice #glowupchallenge #ruralamerica #agproud #pancakelover #farmtotable #farmingphotos

Our herd bull, such a Renaissance Man. This guy has been in with our cows since September and he’s been such a gentleman. He’s doesn’t give me creepy stare downs and refrains from plowing through fence so he’s A-Okay in my book. I’m super pumped to have cute little bald faced calves running around this spring! #herefordcattle #cattlefarm #cowsmakemehappy #cowsofig #cowphotography #herefords #beefcattle #farmher #winterfarming #snowlovers #catskillsmountains #upstatenylife #upstatenyphotographer #fourthgeneration #farming_ismylife #agproud #agritourism #pastureraised #femalefarmer #farm #farming #cowstagram #farmlikeagirl
