Joseph Burkett knew nothing about maple syrup when he and his wife-to-be, Alethea, decided to try making it on his father’s gravel driveway 20 years ago. Tired of being cooped up inside all winter, the couple thought it might be fun to get out in the March sunshine to collect some sap from his dad’s grove of 20 sugar maple trees in Meadville, Pennsylvania, and try their hand at cooking it down into syrup.
