Mar 23, 2019, 1 to 2:30 PM

The Windham Regional Woodlands Association (WRWA) is sponsoring its annual Sugar House Tour on Saturday. Each year the WWRA showcases a different sugaring operation. This year East Hill Farm will be hosting the tour of its traditional, wood-fired sugaring operation with about 1050 taps on a pipeline, of which 400 are on 3/16" gravity line and an additional 700 taps with a light vacuum. In recognition of the old ways, it sets out one to two-hundred buckets. East Hill Farm uses a 40" x 9' wood-fired evaporator and has recently added a small reverse osmosis machine to increase efficiency. The farm generally produces 200 to 300 gallons of syrup.
