It's an actual thing. Ukrainian soldiers love maple syrup after trying some and have politely requested more. Volunteers have answered that call.

I've confirmed that it's mostly from Greens Sugarhouse of Poultney Vermont: https://www.reddit.com/r/vit4ukraine/comments/y25wmz/todays_batch_from_reddit_to_frontline_video_by/

There is no way to tell from the generic bottles of maple syrup in the photo whether or not they are actually VT syrup, as the post suggests they are. From what I can make out of the sticker it looks like it's probably something from Costco as others have stated. Could be VT syrup... or not.

Also you can tell from the image in the original post, second box from the bottom on the right.

If you're interested, visit the subreddit where the original photo came from. There's more photos of the shipments, etc. It depends on the volunteer who bought the supplies to ship to Ukraine, they buy the syrup from different sources.
