A warmer climate means an earlier yet inconsistent start for maple syrup producers with each passing year, and 2024 is no different.
Ontario Maple Syrup Producers’ Association Executive Director John Williams says that medium and large scale producers especially have to adjust to the times in order to get the most out of the season.
The ideal temperatures for producing maple syrup is above freezing during the day and below during the night, but Williams says the consistency hasn’t been there for the last few years.
Despite the inconsistency over the last few years, Williams is anticipated that this will be a good season for syrup.
