They later boiled the sap in several kettles resultâ€" ing in a better product. water, to cook meat. The methods were crude and Indians first threw hot stones into a trough of sap to make syrup. The six main varieties of maple trees, from which syrup is made, are found in the southwestern part of the country in Quebec" and Ontario for the most part. Sugar Maple is the most predominant species of tree in this area, while there is some Soft Maple as well. Other sap producing trees include Silver Maple and Black Maple. f Only trees with a trunk diameter of 10 inches or more are used for syrup production and one to four taps may be drilled without harm to the tree. The trees require room to develop a large leaf area so the thinning of bushes is necessary at times. Good forest management must be maintained by the farmer to produce a high quality of syrup.
