York State's agriculture; and

maple trees within the United States and over 2,000 maple sugar makers;
and

 WHEREAS, Abundant and sustainable, New York's gourmet maple industry
is vibrant and growing on an annual basis; and

 WHEREAS, New York's unique climate and forestry make it naturally
perfect for maple syrup production; and

 WHEREAS, As the second state in the country for maple syrup
production, New York produces over 800,000 gallons of syrup from over
2.8 million taps; and

 WHEREAS, New York's maple providers are distributed across New York
State and have expanded over the last five years; maple operations reach
more than 400,000 visitors throughout New York; and

 WHEREAS, The prime maple season runs from February to March every
year; and

 WHEREAS, On Maple Weekends, being held March 22-23, 2025, and March
29-30, 2025, maple producers from across New York State will welcome
families to their farms to experience firsthand how real, mouth-watering
syrup and related products are made; and

 WHEREAS, Visitors will also have the opportunity to enjoy fun,
family-friendly activities, taste New York's freshest syrup, and
purchase maple products; and

 WHEREAS, Through their diligence and expertise in maple, the
