Ruscom Maple Farm News Today

Tree tapping started a week later than last year at Ruscom Maple Farm in Lakeshore, Ont., where there’s optimism this year’s up-and-down winter temperatures will be beneficial for business.

Rob Nadeau has tapped his maple trees earlier than ever in hopes of catching the sweet stuff often. Despite the early haul, Nadeau and other area maple producers need to play a waiting game, in hopes Mother Nature has a sweet tooth.
