Maine Backwoods Syrup

Maine Backwoods Syrup Pure Maine Maple Syrup and novelties for any syrup needs you have! As he claims, once you start making sugar it is pretty hard to quit.

How It All Began.........

Maine Backwoods Maple Syrup officially started in 2015 but the roots of the business go back quite a few years. Jamie first started making his own syrup in 2011 after doing it several years as a youngster with members of his family. Shane came down with maple fever in 2013 and currently works with Jamie on the tubing lines he installed in 2011. The maple trees we tap are

all located in Peru, Maine near our residences and in close proximity to Worthley Pond. We have 4 sets of tubing with a total of 530 taps. The sap we collect is boiled off in an oil fired drop flue evaporator. We retired the old wood fired evaporator that Jamie built himself. The sap is collected in plastic totes and boiled off at rate of 45-55 gallons per hour. Our sap is filtered several times before making it to the evaporator and we filter the syrup through our 7" filter press, guaranteeing the clearest, best quality syrup possible. It takes approximately 40 gallons of sap to make 1 gallong of maple syrup. The days seem short and the nights are long during the heart of the season. The timing of the annual sap run varies from year to year. We have seen sap run by mid-February and others years not until early April. The one thing you can count on is that the sap doesn't wait for you and it also doesn't care what you planned on! We have pretty much maximized the taps on the land we currently occupy and are actively looking for a new grove with more taps. Some people call this a hobby, while those close to us call it as an addiction. We can say that we truly do enjoy it, which is the #1 requirement to keep a venture like this moving forward. We just recently got the website up and running so check us out and place an order. We promise that this is good stuff!
