Where to Buy Bird-Friendly Maple Syrup In New York

What words come to mind when you think of maple syrup? Think birdier than “sticky” and “delicious” — how about “bright red” and “full of song”?

Life has changed in leaps and bounds this year. If you have met Ollie, you know I mean leaps and bounds. On February 12, Abraham Lincoln’s birthday, it was one year since I had to release my precious Penny into the arms of eternity.

With my pup of boundless energy came some changes.

It’s a new year and the New Years Resolutions have been made. It’s time to make changes to improve ourselves and that is exactly what we are about to do at the homestead. I’m talking about the Caretaker’s Cottage at Brookside. It’s time for a facelift and for that we need volunteers. We always need volunteers, I think every organization on the planet needs more volunteers.
