Brad Kik, ISLAND's Co-Director, has been volunteering many winter hours in the Wagbo sugar bush. He has been spending days checking lines to ensure a smooth flow of sap once the spring thaw begins. View this video for a glimpse of his hard work, along with Doug Bedell and James Manning:

I'm very glad to know that Wagbo now has a blog - now I can follow the goings-on at their place.
The snow looked cold in your video :) It also looked clean and peaceful.
