Two Pigs Farm maple syrup is produced almost entirely from sugar maples on our Vermont farm using a wood-fired evaporator. The firewood is cut and split from our own stand of hardwood and the whole family pitches in along with neighbors and Tom, our farm manager. As the season progresses (most sugaring is done in March), the maple syrup grade changes. The early runs of sap tend to produce lighter syrup and the mid- and late-season sap will end up being darker and, to our palates, tastier. But we don't guarantee a particular grade of syrup. In fact, our syrup is shipped without a grade indication. However, most of our syrup is on the darker side, just the way we like it.

Over the years, we have found that plastic and metal containers affect flavor so all of our syrup is bottled in attractive glass bottles with ceramic stoppers. The top of the bottle is then dipped in hot wax to seal in freshness.

3 strikes, we're out...at least we hope we're out of the woods with this the third year slump we've seen in our syrup production. Year one we just weren't ready on time. Year two was partly the same, but also a short season. Year 3, 2010, was a short & devastating season for the entire sugaring industry. We have enough taps installed to yield 5-600 gallons of finished syrup and netted only about 225 gallons! We didn't even meet 50% of our goal! As in years past, our syrup is sold on a first come, first serve basis. We apologize for the limited supply, but really have no control over it at this point, it's all in nature's hands. For those of you who placed an order and got some of our 'gold', we hope you enjoy it and will share it with family and friends. For those of you who tried and just didn't order in time, we're sorry we ran short and hope we'll have better results next year to make everybody happy!

Once you open a bottle of syrup, it is best stored in the refrigerator. We use it not only on pancakes and French toast but in coffee and over vanilla ice cream.
