Saskatoon grows happily here in my garden in Dundee

I love watching your videos, so uplifting . Great to see Rosa’s smiling face and dear little Lilian. But where are the goats, have missed them. Thanks

[@TapoNothFarm]

Thank you! The goats are around and will make it into the next farm vlog we film.

Interesting to see the difference between the tiller and the plough. Like others, i can't believe you have no wild bramble, they offer a never ending, Forth road bridge style pruning job here! Hope your cultivated varieties succeed. Enjoyed the update.

Many thanks, fingers crossed I won't be making a 'how to control blackberries with goats' video in ten years time! :)

How soon do you think you will get a harvest from each of the berries? Could you interplant with a veggy crop?

[@TapoNothFarm]

I think we'll get some (small) next year but it will be a few years before we have a reliable harvest for sale. For sure you can grow veg interplanted with the berries while there is enough space and sunlight. We have considered it but not sure we need to this year (have plenty of room elsewhere for veg) but also we are interplanting the berries with other perennials. Thanks for watching.

You might be lacking the michoryzal fungi that usually go with brambles. Worth a trip to a zone where they are... and pick up a bucket of soil from there.

[@TapoNothFarm]

That's an interesting thought.

I am wondering what fuel is used to power the BCS tiller. Anyone know?
