COLUMBIA CITY, Ind. Focus to quality. That was the advice from legendary Vermont sugarmaker Glenn Goodrich, the featured speaker at the recent annual meeting of the Indiana Maple Producers Association in Columbia City. Goodrich offered folksy humor and helpful pointers, sharing what he has learned growing his dual operation in Cabot, Vt. and Eden, Vt. to upwards of 150,000 taps after starting out on a flat pan and cinder blocks. “Everything we do is focused to quality,” Goodrich said. “Your customer is sophisticated. Tune up your sugarhouse. Small is ok but make it nice.” Goodrich pointed out the differences between Vermont and Indiana sugaring that work in the Hoosiers’ favor. In Northern Vermont, the days just don’t warm up enough to get huge sap runs as they do in Indiana, where sugarmakers can enjoy “3 gallon days,” he said.
