Maple syrup season begins in January in Ohio and ends around March or April. Ohio is the 4th largest producer of maple syrup in the country. Jim Lowry tapped trees in the woods on his farm located just north of Powell on Liberty Road. In this 1928 photo Lowry, with the pail, is being helped by Earl Converse. Horses would pull sleds holding barrels to be filled with sap. Once the sap is collected, it is taken to a sugar house and boiled down to syrup. It takes 40 gallons of sap to make one gallon of syrup.
