    Maple steam rises in large plumes of white sweet smelling vapor as finished syrup (fancy grade) fills a bucket at the Williams Farmstead just north of Rutland along Rt. 7.  Visitors enjoyed the process and had a chance to sample warm 2008 syrup fresh from the evaporator during the Annual Vermont Maple Weekend on March 29th and 30th.  It is a signature event for folks who love maple and the hard working independent producers who tap and boil the sap every year.
