In response to Griffin Corse's Maple Syrup

After reading Griffin's blog about maple syrup it made me think back when I used to go out sugaring with my friends Dad who had a sugaring house and how much fun it was doing it. He did it mostly for fun and sold some of it to people but was never reliable on it for income. When I saw Griffin's blog I remembered that to many people it is very important and they put a lot of time and effort into so they can make the most out if it and not lose money. As Griffin states it is hard to market maple syrup when there are so many brands and other people doing the same thing. I think the best way to market or differentiate it would be locally even though they sell the barrels to a big company I think distributing locally would draw in a good amount of consumers knowing they are helping a local citizen and helping them live the way that they help the community by sugaring or farming.
