Pierce County syrup producers cut output after timber damage
The Janisch brothers shoulder about five percent of Pierce County’s timber damage. For 17 years they will miss sugaring as 1,000 gallons of syrup may drop to half next year. They clear 5 to 6 miles of woodland trails, salvaging prime maples while a mild winter aids the recovery effort.
