That's when maple sap flows best and producers can boil it down to make sweet syrup, said Jim Fadden, president of the New Hampshire Maple Producers Association. Vermont leads the nation in maple syrup production, followed by New York, Maine, Wisconsin and New Hampshire. Jim Fadden is a sixth-generation maple syrup producer in Woodstock. He has 10,000 trees and produces more than 3,000 gallons of maple syrup a year.
