Tell us a little about how you became maple syrup producers. Peter: Well, I originally started when I was a little kid at my parents’ place. We had about 4 or 5 taps, and we started boiling back then. Fast forward to 1989, Anne and I bought a farm with a huge maple bush, here in Midland, so in 1992 we started producing maple syrup. We originally started production using our barbecue, and from there we just kept improving, built a proper sugar shack, and got bigger and bigger. We chose the name Windlee, because we’re both sailors, and it’s always windy up here. Anne: After having a few businesses, we decided that living on a farm and trying to be self-sufficient could be what we wanted from life. When we bought the farm, we looked at it and asked ourselves, how do we make money off of this farm, and it was kind of glaring in our eyes – that this is a full bush. It’s a beautiful farm. We have 150 acres and it’s a combination of bush and fields, and there’s a huge pond at the bottom of our property also.
