MAINE MAPLE SYRUP PRODUCTION:

Here at Hall Farms, we tap 11,000 sugar maples each spring, in hopes of soon reaching over 15,000 maple syrup taps.

All are tapped with plastic tubing, strung from tree to tree. We now utilize our trailer to haul the gathering tank. This season will also be testing our new facility which will work towards our goal of collecting and boiling the syrup in the same location.


After the sap is collected, production begins. On a good day, we can process up to 3,600 gallons of sap, per hour, with a yield of 90 gallons of Hall Farms Maple Syrup. If you were in the area, you could tell that our maple production has started by seeing the steam roll out of the sugarhouse.

After the syrup reaches the proper density, it is filtered through this machine called a filter press. The filter press does exactly what its name says, it presses the syrup through to filter out any sediment or sap sand.


Once filtered, syrup is packaged in this state-of-the-art canning unit. We package syrup within minutes to assure the highest quality maple syrup available. This canning unit will fill 4 containers at any given time. We have the ability to fill up to 6, but usually use 4 heads on the canning unit.


It takes many drops of sap to produce our Maine maple syrup and it takes many more to create our many value added products. Each drop is extremely important to our business.
