Nature’s Sweetener: Natural Maple Syrup

Enjoy This All-Natural Sweetener from Mother Nature

The NH maple sugaring season usually starts about mid-February and ends around mid-April. How well and long the season is depends greatly on the weather. New Hampshire Maple Producers usually produce about 90,000 gallons of maple syrup in a given season. It takes forty gallons of sap to make one gallon of syrup which is a lot of sap.

Maple syrup grades vary depending on the tree and the time of season you are tapping. The tap made early in the season generally produces a Grade A Fancy Syrup – the lightest shade and most delicate flavored Maple Syrup. Sap gathered later in the season tends to produce a heartier Grade B Maple Syrup. Ask us about NH Maple Products or share your comments. To feature your local NH products or business, contact us.

The production of New Hampshire maple syrup and other maple products is a thriving tradition that signals the arrival of spring. The sweet scent of boiling maple sap escaping area sugar shacks is just one of the many reasons visitors travel from around the world to experience springtime in New Hampshire!

The maple sugaring season usually begins in late February or early March in southern New Hampshire, and a little later in the northern part of the state. In order for the sap to flow, sugarmakers need a consistent period of warm, sunny days and cold nights. In New Hampshire, about 90,000 gallons of maple syrup are made each season.

Don’t forget to bring plenty of New Hampshire maple products home with you. Real New Hampshire maple syrup and maple candy make great gifts for friends, family, and yourself!

NH Maple Syrup Production

Many maple sugarmakers now use plastic pipelines and boil down the sap in modern stainless evaporators, but some still gather and boil the old-fashioned way, with horse-drawn wagons and wood-fired evaporators. Steam rising from sugar shacks is a welcome sign of spring to come.
