Summer?
Summer is here for the most part. Still quite cool and real rainy. The black flies and mostquitos are really having a great time with all the wet weather. Even with the not so perfect weather guests are arriving from all kinds of places and are enjoying our beautiful views and green state. Schools will be out soon and our creemee lines will be long but we are fast and can get you on your way quickly. Stop by and see whats new and enjoy our porch with a view.

Spring at last
Spring has finally sprung.....Rain,rain, and more rain. One week of sunshine and right back to more rain. Lawns and flowers love it but the sun isn't out long enough to keep up with the grass and the weeds. The mud has dried up...pretty much and people and buses have started coming to the Morse Farm to visit us. We have five buses this week and three more coming in next week. They will be looking for their Sugar-on-Snow and creemees, and other new this spring items that will catch their eye. We still have bulk syrup for our locals, grass-fed beef and of course Maple Kettle corn. Stop by with your guests and take a look at whats new. Don't forget to stop and smell the flowers and fresh cut grass. Happy Spring!

Finally some sun.
Spring has been a wet....long time coming,but now and then we actually get to see a little sonshine. When the ducks don't swim in our pond and use the lawn for floating around, that's when you know there has been way too much rain! The sugar house has been cleaned up from the busy season and we are ready for our busy summer tourist season. Our store hours are longer so you can get in here to get your Maple creemees and other goodies. Grade B syrup is on sale and the grass fed beef is 20% off except for the ground beef. So stop up and take a look around, new products arriving daily.

Seasons End
Looks like sugaring season is coming to an end, but it sure has been a good and busy one. Some late nights of boiling to make room for the seeming never ending flo of sap. A sugar makers dream and nightmare all at the same time, not wanting to loose a drop of sap to make more of the liquid gold. All in all a great year. Stop by and get some of this years syrup! See you soon.

Winter? / Spring?
We just might catch a glimps of spring this weekend but we have been thinking that for weeks now. This weather sure is good for making maple syrup. We are having a real good year. Sometimes there is more sap than hours in the day to boil it all. People really enjoy the tails told in the sugarhouse. Stop in if you see the steam still rolling out late at night, Burr or Tom would welcome some one to talk to, it helps to keep them awake.

Finally Fancy
Well the week of cold weather worked----Burr is making Fancy and he his real happy. All sugar makers like to make Fancy grade syrup. The big April Fools Day snow storm seems to have missed us a little, but I'm sure we will still get some, we always do. So the sugaring continues. This may end up being a nice long season.

Too cold for the flow
Even though we had almost two solid weeks of sap flow,now Mother Nature has thrown us a curve ball and it never gets quite warm enough to let the sap run. Every day the weather says it will be a little bit warmer......we're still waiting! We have made Medium and Grade A Dark syrup so maybe this cold spell will bring on the Fancy syrup. That would be great. The robins and red-winged black birds are back and the back roads are a mess so lets have sugaring season --- again.
