Waynesville News

« \APLE SYRUP ING

Waynesville's Satterthwaite

family

really

sticks together

vvhen

maple

syrupmaking

time

rolls

around.

The base of operation is

Ifenry

Satterthwaite's

170 acre

farm

on

Dos te r R oa d outside

Harveysburg

just

over the

Qinton

County

line.

Four generations

of the

family this season

has

gotten a

work

o ut i n t he

Satter thwaite 's

560 tree sugar camp

which

surrounds

a 1905

vintage

sugar-

bouse where maple syrup is

sizzled to.perfection in an old

time evaporator rebuilt a few

years

ago incorporating the

antique parts in its recon

struction.

The

weekend

ofFeb.

15 and 16

four generations of the family

showed up to help

gather

in

1,100

gallons

of

sugar

water

collected from 700 taps. Henry

a nd Ste lla S at te rth wa ite s

grandchildren got f irst

hand

experience in knowing how it

felt to be a syrup

maker

since

their grandfather

has

been

making the delicious stuff since

1

was

old enough to

carry

a

three galltm bucket . Over

seeing the sugaring party was

HarrySatterthwaite, a hale and

spry 81.

Although long and tedious,

th e work was steeped

in

her itage for the bunch. The

Sat ter thwai tes

have

been

boiling up maple sjrrup since

before th e

Civil

War

when their

ancestor, Abel Satterthwaite,

made syrup on his father's

homstead at

Waynesville. Abel

Was ibe son of John

and

Elizabeth Lionton Sa t

ter thwai te who set t led a t

Waynesville in 1802

and built

the

present Ed

Andres

residence in 1812. The sugar

maple

tree

grove

that

once

sprawled over the

Andres

property north ofThirdStreet is

no longer recognizable.

Harry Satterthwaite has

been

working in sugarcamps almost

since he was old enough to

walk. With

clarity,

he

recollected maple syrup time

from around

1800

when

trees

were

tapped

with elderberry

woodspigots called spiles hand

hitt led by the sugarer . Maple

bucketswere used

to

collect th e

water

which wa s boi le d i nt o

^Tup

in

large

iron kettles

se t

in

a row dipping the water from

kettle to kettle until it became

nea r syrup . In those days,

syrup makers didn t

have ê

vîte wool flannel to strain

their syrup through. The syrup

was boiled down halfway and

then poured into crocks to

se t

for three or four days.

Sediment,

lime and other

foreign

matter

eventually

d*opped to the bottom of the

crocks and

boiling was

resumed. The price was in

credible in those days. All that

hard work by hand day and

idght on end and the maple

syrup sold for 75cents a gallon.

The

irm

kettle method gave

way to the fumas-evaporator

pan method. Thisis the process

that has beengoingonat Henry

Satterwaites's sugar house for

the past 70years.

Rolled metal spiles and new

ones

of

castiron

are

used now

fw the tree spigotswhensyrup

s ea son comes

in .

Trees 10

in

dies in diameter and under get

onemetal bucket and everyone

14indies and over gets two or

more buckets. Nonew fangled

plastic collection bags for the

Satterthwaites. They've had

the bags

burst

at the

seams and

the handy little tool that can be

bought to repair them costs too

much f or th e

bother.

Onequart cf syrup to the tap

is the average yield, according

to Henry. It takes anywhere

from

50-55

gallons of sugar

water to make one gallon of

synip.

It takes deep freezes and

warm thawing spells rf weather

to start the

sugar water

flowing. The water has to be

^thered

duringthetime before

the

trees

bud

since the

rise of

sap in the trees occurrs at the

same time and sap is no good

for syrup making.

Deep freezes

breaks

the

su ga r a nd

lime

loose in the

trees and it is the lime deposits

that gives the waterits

sweetness.... Interes<tiqgly,

oiough, sugar

maple;

treeswon't

unless

th e Soil

around

them contains l ime.

Fela^ry and early March

places and

on different

sides

each

year

since tapping

causes

a four inch by four inch section

of th e

t ree

to deaden.

When the-

water flows,.the job's got to be

done because sugar water will

ferment into sugarbeer if the

temperature goes over 40

degrees.

Either ash or sugar maple

wood is cu t for the sugar house

fire at least suemonths to a

year

prior to syrup time.

Its

good hot

Idazesends a je t offlames back

to the

sugar

house chimney

passing under the evaporator

pans which graduallyboil the

waterinto sjnrdin a giant

steam

bath of ampley îked air.

Sugar water is piped into the

evaporator from a storage tank

outside tile sugarhouse . The

continuous flow of cold water

pushes its way through a series

ofshallow square pans until the,

aid product is achieved. When

a hydrometer tests the weight

of

syrup at

32

or

a

ther

mometer

says

it s 236.

degrees the syrup is done.

It's

then strainedthrough white

wool

f la nnel t o take

o ut lim e

deposits and settlings and

canned.

Thebest production the

Satterthwaites had

this

season

was 10gallons in 10hours. But

that s not

a common oc-

c u r r a n c e .

Maple

syrup

will stay fresh

for about five

years

in a sealed

tin can. However,

the Sat

terthwaites neighbors se t a

record in the 1960s when they

were cleaning out

their

old

sugar

house. They found a tin of

syrup that they hadmade when

they stoppedsyruping in

1933.

It

was still edible.

When it s time to do

it ,

it's

got to be done/' say Henry.

There's noway to put it off .

That's the way it goes for

maple

syrup maker s.

The

Satterthwaites

are both em

ployed at Clinton-Massie High

School and somet imes

have

to

take t ime off to make syrup.
