Sugaring in Vermont (Update)
Monday Mar 21, 2022
Monday Mar 21, 2022
As we come out of winter, the energy of spring starts flowing in our forests again. Cold nights and warm days don’t just mean muddy roads, they mean the sap’s flowing again, and it’s sugar season. All over the state folks are boiling in outdoor kettles, homemade evaporators, and sugar houses. In celebration of the season, we’re putting out this Sugaring in Vermont episode from our archive. The episode features a lot of folks from a story gathering we hosted in 2019, including Grace Korzun. Grace passed away this past October, and we’d like to dedicate this episode re-release in her memory. Hope you enjoy, and thanks for listening.
In this episode we explore the the tree that connects so many of us to place and community, the sugar maple.
This episode was produced by Stephen Abatiell, Kara Fitzbeauchamp, and special guest Jessee Lawyer of The Dawnland Kitchen.
Special thanks to Greg Cox, Grace Brigham, WEXP, and the Saltash Serenaders.
