We just finished up an all you can eat buckwheat (and pancake) breakfast at Herrington Manor State Park. We got to see exactly how to harvest fresh Garrett County maple syrup from start to finish. There were maple trees, sap buckets, a boiling vat on a wood stove and then the finished product - warm, sticky and sweet (amazingly sweet) Garrett County maple syrup. I didn't realize this until reading the article in the Washington Post about our maple syrup, but the everyday table syrup we use is about 2% maple syrup and then watered down. What we had today was 100% maple syrup - and you could tell the difference. Local Boy Scout Troop 1 was there volunteering, cooking the food and serving It was surprisingly crowded, too, so I am sure they were pleased with the turnout. I have a photo gallery below of some of the photos.
