I know it was last April when you first posted about the Smith's nectar. https://sigforum.com/eve/forums...150044224#8150044224
That was near what I believe is season's end. Folks in the NorthEast have started tapping their trees.

So as the thread header asks, when do the Smith's expect to have their 2017-18 product available for sale?

Yeah, you're right. I misread some things elsewhere about getting ready for the season.

I got 2 pounds of cream a few weeks ago. After eating 2 containers in 2 weeks, I became concerned with my supply, and inquired...they have plenty.

But don't y'all go eating all of it!

If this stuff is that good, why don't they have a website?

I wouldn't mind trying it out, but I don't do facebook.

My feeling from talking with them is it is really a mom-n-pop kinda thing, but they have allowed for a wider audience by creating the facebook page and the owner's son deals with the online aspect.

Some things are best kept small. Once you have some of their maple cream, you'll hope they never run out Wink

If you want to contact them, it's peterjsmith2012@gmail.com / 802-349-3664, public, per Facebook.
Also, I'll give you the prices from their page:
$40 per gallon
$24.50 1/2 gallon
$14.50 quart
$10 pint
Maple cream $9 for 1/2 lb, which is tiny. He told me they were considering doing 1lb containers in the future.

But leave us some cream Big Grin

I don't do Facebook either. Last April I contacted Peter via email and he invoiced me via Paypal which worked out nicely. Obviously there are other ways to contact him and arrange payment.
