Unstable, overcast weather is a good thing!

Pure Fuel is great for extra power when you need it but, do you know what is in it?  Pure Fuel is one of the few single ingredient pouches available for athletes. All natural and organic, Pure Fuel is Anderson’s Pure Maple Syrup in a convenient pouch for you use when you are on the run or working out.

This year in Northern Wisconsin the maple syrup season started in late March and wrapped up at the end of April.  The unstable, overcast weather has been good for collecting sap.  Yep, that’s right; when everyone else is complaining that spring will never come it’s exactly what syrup makers want!  The sap in the trees runs best when the weather is unstable, freezing at night and somewhere around 40°F during the day. Sap flows in the trees as they “wake up” after the winter dormancy.  Syrup makers gather the sap in that time between winter and spring before the trees start to bud.  Responsible tapping does not harm the tree as only a small portion of sap is gathered from the trees. Syrup makers then take this gathered sap and remove most of the water, leaving the nutritional energy that is Pure Fuel. We are honored to receive this gift from the trees and package it for you!
