2021 Maple Water Harvesting Season - Visible Minerals

2021 Maple Water Harvesting Season - Visible Minerals ------------------ Dear Maple 3 community, The 2021 harvest season was very special! Due to a warm early spring, the maple sap seemed richer in minerals than previous years. From years to years, research and analysis have shown that maple water contains 46 bioactives nutrients including electrolytes, minerals, pholyphenols, amino and organic acids. In 2021, the lab reports showed precipitation of some minerals. As a result, it is sometimes possible to see the minerals, that crystallized from a liquid to a solid state during the pasteurization just before the bottling process.  You might see the minerals as black particles. Just keep...

Maple production and global warming

Social issue: the effects of climate change on the maple industry #globalwarming #environment #maplewater #mapleindustry In general, global warming in the north is expected to promote sugar maple growth and syrup production, Solarik observes. But what will be the effects of warming on the germination rates and on the natural regeneration of this characteristic species of the temperate forest? Will the sugar maples migrate north? This is what the researcher wanted to determine as part of his doctoral thesis. Initially, the biologist collected maple seeds from different sites distributed throughout the range of sugar maple, from its extreme south in...

Eating Organic to Reduce Pesticide Contamination

You must first be aware that pesticides (fungicides, herbicides, insecticides) are poisons designed to kill living organisms (fungi, plants, insects) that interfere with crops! Pesticides kill At first glance, it is natural to believe that substances whose primary function is to suppress insects, plants or fungi can be potentially dangerous for the health of humans who consume them, even in tiny doses. Sometimes I give presentations to children and ask them if they think it's a good idea to spray poisons on the food. I have never been told in the affirmative. It will always amaze me that one might...
