Tapper shacks employ 1 tapper each, who tap fully grown Maple and Pine trees, which droplets can be visually seen on the tree.

A tapper can harvest roughly 20-22 Pine Resin in a 16 work hours, and 21-23 Maple Syrup in the same time frame.

A pine tree gives 2 pine resin per harvest and maple trees give 3 maple syrup.

Tree	Days to grow	Days between harvests	Harvested resources	Resources per day initial	Resources per day subsequent
Pine	12	7	2 Pine Resin	0.105	0.286
Maple	30	12	3 Maple Syrup	0.071	0.25

Pine Resin is needed to make Treated Planks which, among other uses, are consumed in mining to make infinite Scrap Metal. It's also used to build the Observatory .
Folktails-exclusive Maple Syrup is needed to make Maple Pastries and Catalyst.
