You don't just need sugar maple trees, you also need a hard cold season (sugar weather). This is because to tap the sap it needs to be moving, something the trees do when the nights are freezing and daytime temperatures are under 60 but well out of freezing range. In the south this doesn't happen so you have neither the volume of sap flow (and the pressure required to efficiently tap) nor the sugar concentration necessary to economically concentrate the syrup. They do make bigleaf maple syrup on the West Coast but you'll pay out the ass for it for these reasons - less concentrated sap and less osmotic pressure make it much more expensive to produce.View attachment 8695296
>most of the maple trees are in the United States of America
What exactly do Canadians have again?
