My dd9 is asking can we plant a maple so she can tap it. Our old friends in Massachusetts [where we used to live long before she was born] are tapping and they bring the buckets in when we are skyping and tell us it is delicious before it is boiled down. We found her a carton of maple water in the health food shop in town ... but she wants her own maple!
Not sure we can grow and tap them in the UK. We have plenty of acers but I think the sugar maple is a different type right? I'm guessing you may know!
