If you look around, you may find untapped potential in the most unusual places. Who knew gnarly boxelder trees could be tapped for rich maple syrup with hints of butterscotch?

Join host Emmery Mehlhoff for this special Farmhouse Treasures season of Straight Talk with NDFB as she talks with Brandon Lindstrom. Brandon farms in Amenia, N. D.

His family also makes syrup from the boxelder trees located on their farm. The Lindstrom family discovered the boxelder trees could be tapped and the sap boiled into syrup resulting in a rich maple-butterscotch flavored syrup.

Brandon talks all about the process of tapping trees, collecting sap, and boiling the sap into syrup.

Syrup makes great Christmas gifts! If you would like to purchase syrup, contact Brandon Lindstrom at lindstromenterprises@protonmail.com
