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 their 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, they set out one to two hundred buckets. East Hill Farm use a 40" x 9' wood fired evaporator and have recently added a small reverse osmosis machine to increase efficiency. They generally produce 200 to 300 gallons of syrup.
