AI Summary

This resolution commends New York Maple Producers during their Annual Maple Weekends scheduled for March 22-23 and March 29-30, 2025, while highlighting the significant role of maple production in New York State's agricultural landscape. The resolution recognizes New York as the second-largest maple syrup producer in the United States, with over 2,000 maple sugar makers who tap more than 0.8 million trees and produce over 800,000 gallons of syrup annually. It emphasizes the state's unique climate and forestry, which make it ideal for maple syrup production, and notes that it takes 40 gallons of sap to create one gallon of syrup.

During these Maple Weekends, producers will welcome families to their farms, offering opportunities to learn about syrup production, participate in family-friendly activities, taste fresh syrup, and purchase maple products. Ultimately, the resolution aims to recognize and honor the expertise and contributions of New York's maple producers to the state's agricultural heritage and economy.
