This
page is designed to be a central "jumping off"
point for people looking for information on making
syrup from sweet sorghum and from sugar cane. The two
types of syrup share many of the same processes and
though both types of cane are grown in the southeastern
region of the US, the syrupmakers are oftentimes not
familiar with the methods of the other. Sweet Sorghum
producers farther north and west are exposed to even less
information on the process of making syrup from sugar
cane. Even though both types of syrup have their diehard
devotees, I feel that we can all learn from each other,
if nothing more than learning the traditions behind the
art of syrupmaking. Some of the resources I have gathered
are shared by both types of syrupmaking, such as the cane
mill pictures and catalogs. Some are related more to
sweet sorghum, and some to cane syrup, so I have divided
the links accordingly. If you have any sites that you
think should be included here, or suggestions to make
this site more useful, please let me know by contacting
me at: christison@coastalnet.comKen Christison, Conway, NC
