Maple Syrup Maple syrup is to people as honey is to bees. The production of syrup is as technical as almost any refined sugar, though like honey it is produced completely naturally, from the sap of maple trees. The process of creating maple syrup is as easy as extracting the sap from the tree and boiling off the excess water. After discussing the sap production, syrup production, and the process of creating maple sugar, we will all have a greater understanding of Maple syrup. Maple trees first
in the Maple Industry Canada is the largest producer of Maple Syrup in the world, so it is no surprise that the Canadian Maple industry has changed quite dramatically in the past 25 years. According to the Government of Canada, the efficiency of maple farms has increased by almost 20% in the past 25 years. In 1981, a farm would have been able to get 1,404,000 taps. In 2006, this number had increased to 3,913,000 taps per farm. In addition to increasing efficiency, the amount of maple syrup being produced
example of a sustainable resource would be solar power. The resource I chose, maple syrup, is also an example of a Sustainable resource. This resource is sustainable because you first harvest maple syrup from Maple trees, which are a sustainable resource, and as long as that tree stays healthy no matter how much we take of the sap,
The Ojibway Culture "The Ojibways affirm that long before they became aware of the white man's presence on this continent, their coming was prophesied by one of their old men, whose great sanctity and oft-repeated fasts enabled him to commune with spirits and see far into the future. He prophesied that the white spirits would come in numbers like sand on the lake shore, and would sweep the red race from the hunting grounds which the Great Spirit had given them as an inheritance. It was
As I opened the door to the barn, I could smell the strong scent of hay and I heard a horse whinny. As soon as I saw a tall horse more than twice the size of me, a twist of nervousness formed inside me and I wondered how I would ever be able to ride that thing. As the councillors from the “Horse Camp” put the sattles on the horses and handed us our helmets. (I later learned that my horses name was Bailey.) We all walked our horses out of the big scarlet coloured barn and attempted to put their feet
Sugar Gliders By:Tejah Thull Sugar gliders are not sweet. They have “sugar” in their name because of their desire for sweet tree sap. Also they have “glider” in their name because they can glide up to an entire football field in length. Sugar gliders are very unique due to their habitat, appearance, and life The habitat of a sugar glider is quite unique. Sugar gliders live in the treetops of forest. They like the forest more than anything because of all the trees for them to get sap and glide back
Sugar Glider Profile By: Kayla Dean I will be discussing the life, biology, evolution, and domestication of a sugar glider. Sugar gliders are an invasive species of marsupials native to Australia. Some of the most interesting about sugar gliders are their reproductive system and ability to glide. I will also discuss their diet and natural environment and how it differentiates with the environment in the United States, where they are becoming rapidly domesticated, and unlike several exotic animals
Kadence I woke to the smell of pancakes, and syrup. My mouth watering to the point I'm gagging on my spit. Gross right? My apologies... I open my eyes, cringing in pain, and feel a weird sticky feeling on my shoulder. Looking down, I spot a big ass bite and my eyes widen in shock. That's a big ass hickey! Those are my firsts thoughts. Hilarious right? No, not at all. I look around for the first time, and realize these surroundings are very unfamiliar. I'm laying on an extremely comfortable water
No matter what task is at hand, no one can do it alone. Even small daily things like working and handling a restaurant require more than one person. The short story “Pancakes”, by Joan Bauer, follows Jill, a waitress, and how her normal day suddenly goes wrong in the Ye Olde Pancake House. Jill is a perfectionist; she always strives and wants the best out of herself and others. She believes any task can be done with perfect work. However, one waitress is not enough for the masses of people coming
The Dakota and the Ojibwe tribes were certainly very similar if you really think about it. Both depended greatly on canoes and were incredibly serious about respecting each other and following rules. Some of the main rules and valued forms of respect for both tribes included generosity, going about in the tipi in a quiet and orderly manner, and always respecting elders. Though both were similar in some ways, they had many, many differences. Even their similarities contained differences! For
pancakes with warm maple syrup for breakfast. Both of my parents knew what they wanted right away and as usual, we were all waiting for my little sister to decide. Finally, she decided on the pancakes. It took only ten minutes to get our food and what a relief that was considering my stomach sounded like there was a lion inside. The pancakes were delicious, and my dad's biscuits and gravy was yummy. However, the cinnamon roll my mom order was hard as a rock and she had to pour maple syrup over it. That
assembly you ever entertain." -Irma S. Rombauer, Joy of Cooking I awaken this morning with the aroma of bacon calling me to the kitchen. Upon my arrival I witness the table set for five, complete with imported European coffee, buttered toast, maple syrup, fresh squeezed orange juice, and a stack of pancakes so tall it continues to wobble trying to find a center of gravity. Alongside the table stands Isabella, a teacher, visiting us from Santiago, Chile. She will be our houseguest for the next six
called “ragged rhythm”, was first a piano style know for its fast paced beats. It first came into the publics eye in 1893 when he performed an instrumental ensemble at the World Exposition in Chicago. His originally developed style of rag time know as “Maple Leaf Rag” First came on the scene in a club in Sedalia, Missouri as his own form of ragtime. In 1899 He gained nationwide popularity after selling over one million copies worldwide. After this Joplin tried to make this new from of piano style he had
the name of "Maple Leaf Club." In 1895, Joplin continued his studies at the George R. Smith College for negros where he soon published his first composition, the song Please Say You Will. From there, Joplin toured with an eight member Texas Medley Quartet across the country all the way up to Syracuse, New York. This Quartet disbanded in 1897 and Joplin organized another group, the Seda Quartet, which performed off and on during the next few years. In 1899, Joplin composed the Maple Leaf Rag. This
either reciprocal replacement or habitat preference . In a reciprocal replacement, seedlings of one species would be found predominately under large trees ... ... middle of paper ... ...le would be more than that of American beech because sugar maple produce more seeds than American beech. Furthermore, we study whether the two species co-exist via reciprocal replacement, habitat preference or merely by chance. We believe that habitat preference may be the mechanism of coexistence here and therefore
pleasantly reminiscing about her lost childhood as she crochets a warm fuzzy quilt for her granddaughter. Out of nowhere her desire to finish the quilt before noon fades and she find her attention drifting towards the window and looking at a giant maple tree bejeweled in sparkling frost. The tree is old and withered, it has aged immensely; it is somewhat like the old woman … even the texture of the bark is likened to the wrinkles on her face and body. Beyond the bark there is a history of both
Management of a 40 Acre Sugar Maple (Acer saccharum) Stand in Southern Michigan for Sustained Production of Sawtimber Sugar maple (Acer saccharum) is a hard maple used primarily for its lumber and sap. In fact, 9% of the hardwood sawtimber volume in the U.S. comes from this species (5). My client would like to begin extracting sawtimber from her 40 acre maple-dominated stand that has been unmanaged to this point. She sees a market for her sawtimber in the regional flooring industry, but would
square, it has seven old trees, wild flowers and a lot of bugs and ants during summer time. I used to go there to sit down on a rock and watch the town and my trees. There was a very old tree, a maple tree, with a huge trunk. The others were smaller, three in the back, three on my left side and the old maple tree on my right. There were flowers, many kinds, white, yellow, purple and blue. It was nobody's place. Nobody owned that hill, but it was beautiful and peaceful and I dreamed many times about

Designs were also linked to seasons with cherry blossoms for Spring, plum blossoms or snow scenes for Winter, ocean waves for Summer and red maple leaves for Autumn.

It was originally associated with a low social status because the poorer classes could
Updike’s separating, is a short story about a middle aged couple who are contemplating divorce, due to the husbands continuous affairs with another woman. After reading the short story, my observation is that the root cause for the dissolution of the Maple family is due to what we call a “mid-life crisis”, mostly from Richards’s dealings with his crisis in particular. This is the explained restlessness that most adults experience at one time or another, as they enter their middle age years. The cause
