Hello, I'm TenKate Hill Maple.

We have been making Maple on a hobby scale since 2010. We started the first year with 5 taps​,​ then quickly changed to 10. The next year we did 20​,​ then over a few years built up to and hovered around 50 with no more trees to tap. In the fall of 2022 we were able to acquire 25 acres behind our existing homestead and upgrade to 150 taps in 2023 and 700 taps in 2024. Also for 2024 we became Organically Certified​,​ Bird Friendly Certified​,​ and New York Grown and Certified! We plan to be around 2​,​000 taps for the 2025 season. Beyond 2025 we are working on an expansion in collaboration with a neighbor that hopefully will eventually bring us to between 3​,​000 and 4​,​000 taps. It is a family and friend business that so far hasn't made any profit but we are having fun doing it!
