The Sugar Maple is most commonly used to make maple syrup. Other maples that can be used include the Red Maple, Silver Maple, Boxelder and Black Maple. Sugar Maple is generally preferred since its sap has a higher sugar content.
The 2009 production was 920.000 gallon of Maple Syrup.
Maple syrup is used as a healthy alternative to sugar in various dishes. Canady produces 80% of the world's maple syrup and has been exporting it to approximately 50 countries around the globe.
Maple Syrup. There's lots of Maple Trees in Canada so they make lots of Maple Syrup every year. I'm not so sure about what country it exports Maple Syrup to, though. I think to the United States, though. At least that's what most websites say.
Vermont produces nearly 2 million gallons of maple syrup annually.
About 40 gallons of sap are needed to produce one gallon of syrup!
Maple sap typically contains around 2-3% sugar content. This sugar content can vary depending on factors such as the tree species, time of year, and weather conditions. The sap is boiled down to make maple syrup, which has a much higher sugar concentration.
Yes! We are trying it for the first time this year. We have already tapped several trees and have a good amount of sap collected. We will be boiling the sap down into syrup in a few days.
How much sap does it take to produce one gallon of syrup? It takes about 40-50 gallons of sap to produce one gallon of syrup. Each tap yields an average of 10-20 gallons of sap per season: that yields one quart to 1/2 gallon of syrup per single tap tree. One gallon of pure maple syrup weighs 11 pounds.

Maple syrup production goes so far back in history that most historians accept the idea that Native Americans taught it to the early settlers of Canada and New England. Basically Native Americans noticed at some point that the springtime sap of sugar maple trees was slightly sweet. In order to concentrate this sweetness into a usable source of energy, they came up with the idea of collecting the sap and boiling off most of the water. A just reward for surviving the winter in the northeast! For more information, see the Related Links below.

It depends on what time of the year you are in Ottawa. If you are looking for something to do around this time (spring), you should find a sugar bush and have pancakes with fresh maple syrup. One of the many true Canadian traditions.
