How is maple syrup made?

It's maple syrup season! Warm days and cold nights following a frigid winter help the sap in maple trees flow, giving us generally four to six weeks of harvest time across Ohio. A cold winter that freezes the ground helps the trees to store sugars in their roots. Meanwhile, the groundwater collects CO2. Once temperatures break above freezing (best if at least reaching the low 40s), the sap begins to flow up and down the tree. The most efficient process for running the sap is a streak of cold nights and warm afternoons. Read more about the maple syrup process here: https://www.wkyc.com/article/entertai...
