Monastery Maple Syrup

When the days start getting warmer and the evenings are still cold… it’s sugaring season here at the monastery!
Sister Brigid has tapped over 75 trees again this year and is busy boiling down the gallons of sap to delicious maple syrup! It takes 40 gallons of sap to make one gallon of maple syrup, so it’s a big job! This year Sister is spending sugaring season in the sweetest little sugar shack!
Read all about the sugar shack that the Brothers made and our monastery maple-syrup making in the article featured on our monastery website here.
