I'm a small backyard producer and yes this year I'm a few weeks early. Once February rolls around I watch the weather and early Feb the weather looked perfect for sap flow. I tapped and it's been flowing well. 3 boils later and we have 9 gallons syrup from 35 taps. We typically make between 12 and 15 gallons so we should be in the ballpark this year. Boil on!
