This little book swept maple sugarin' buffs off their feet when it first
appeared and is still the top-selling guide to the craft after over 40
years in print. Backyard Sugarin' tells you how you can make maple
syrup right in your own backyard without having to build a sap house or
buy buckets, holding tanks, evaporators, and other expensive
paraphernalia.
This new edition also features a foreword by maple expert Michael
Farrell, author of The Sugarmaker's Companion, who provides a
contemporary look back at the old-school techniques presented in this
book. With detailed "how-to" information and tips from sugarers across
the country, this is the only maple sugaring guide you'll ever need.
