In this episode we talk about the millenia old practice of harvest maple sap and boiling it down into maple syrup!

We cover the indigenous history of this food way, as well as the modern developments as colonizer began this practice. Then of course we delve into how to identify and tap maple trees to boil down some maple syrup of your own!

As a bonus we also talk a bit about collecting and boiling sap from other kinds of trees!
