There is a long history of sugar making with our family. Our great grandfather Hiram (Al) Grant built the original sugar house from bits and pieces of this and that. Some of the lumber came from and old bridge in town. The building may not have been straight, but his sugar business was. All of the sap came from the maple trees from his land and was collected into buckets that were gathered by oxen and an old wagon called a scoot.
His son Leon Grant along with family and friends continued the tradition into the late 30's and 40's utilizing the same tools as Al adding in the use of a tractor. They produced between 200 to 300 gallons of syrup a year. Leon's grandsons took over the business with the continued help of friends and family.
