Other Things I do EBay In the spring of 2002 I began selling things on eBay. I get a kick out of it, and it fits well with my personal goal of recycling and reusing resources. I will sell whatever I come across, from church vestments to comic books and miscellaneous collectibles. My member name is vt_Patrick, and if you want to see what I currently have up for auction, just visit my member page at X. Maple Syrup I started sugaring at the Green Mountain Audubon Society in Huntington, VT. The operation there is old-fashioned, we put out between 600 and 700 buckets every year, and have about 150 trees on pipeline. GMAS sells the syrup directly and through local stores, and the operation usually breaks even. The motivation for keeping the old operation going is partly the educational value, roughly 1000 elementary school kids come through the GMAS maple sugar education program every year. The kids get to tap a tree, hang a bucket, lug some sap, and dump it in a mini-evaporator. |
