My brother in Lacrosse is boiling syrup this weekend. He hasn't been ranting on Facebook lately so the maple must be running.

I’d just plant any type of large maples proven to thrive in your area

mine aren’t sugar maples, but their sap is nearly 3 brix - took “only” 50 gallons of sap to make the syrup in the pic, ha ha
