I was born and raised 20 minutes from Boston, MA. At the age of 17, I was diagnosed with Anxiety. My personal experience with the prescribed medication was NOT POSITIVE. So I decided to find better way. I didn't know it at the time but, that was the BEGINNING for me! I have been “FINDING A BETTER WAY” in all areas in my life ever since. Better ways of how to create a modern homestead affordably, and a better way to provide my family with healthy foods, and so….. much MORE!
At Lumnah Acres we hope our experiences can help guide you to find YOUR BETTER WAY! Please join us in sharing our journey with you, let us be a guide to Modern Homesteading, Self-Sufficiency, and FREEDOM for you!

Mr. Lumnah can’t believe you are up on that ladder with all that snow on your boots and next to something that’s boiling? You are one brave man. Awesome video

[@littlewhitedory1]

Very nice video. I'm so glad to see that YOU DO sit down a d relax once and a while and that it was cough on camera so we can see the Resting Al! You still have more energy than a classroom full of 6th graders after lunch and before gym class!

10 gal of sap = 1 quart of syrup +/-. The sugar content of the sap is always changing from run to run and can decline if the sap is stored for a few days. Lower sugar sap = longer time boiling = darker syrup. All syrup is the same sweetness (same % sugar) reguardless of color grade. The darker the syrup the stronger the maple flavor. The light syrup is better for making maple sugar where you may not want a lot of maple flavor. We take a lot of orders for our maple syrup and we find by far the Extra Dark is the most in demand.

last year Wifey and I were driving through Vermont and went to a sugar shack just off Rt 22. The grades of syrup were light and dark. Asked him what was the difference, he said that the lighter syrup was from the early part of the season when the sap was flowing fast. As the season winds down the sap slows and that is were you get the dark syrup. The dark has a stronger maple flavor than the light. Your doing great.

I'm glad you decided to keep the ice, I was wondering, "WHY????" when you were tossing it out! That's some gorgeous syrup, I can almost smell it from here! (that's me hallucinating, or wishful thinking, LOL!) I love the star, it looks great! ~~Leslie

[@ourfloridagarden4191]

The Star looks wonderful. What a nice gift.

[@dianecharles881]

Funny, I was saying a little higher on the star the exact time your wife said it! 😂

[@airowneus]

I started watching your channel when surfing and found your barn build and decided to watch all these old videos. Really great content! I just had to post on this one, because I laughed out loud when you said you would have a nunchuck flying around. I know you meant a throwing star, it just struck me as funny. Hahaahha, thanks for that!

[@marissaramos8950]

Love the star addition to your outdoor kitchen! I would love try making syrup in the future. Would be a fun adventure. Thank you for sharing!
