Today we welcome Tom McVeigh onto the R2Kast! ๐Ÿšœ Tom has been making big changes on his farm, transitioning away from traditional methods and diving into nut farming, a less common but increasingly valuable crop in the UK.


We explore how heโ€™s reshaping his farm, the challenges of introducing nut trees into British agriculture, and the long-term vision for this shift. Tom shares the lessons heโ€™s learned, from soil management to market demand, and the unexpected hurdles along the way. ๐ŸŒฐ๐ŸŒณ


Beyond nut farming, we discuss how agriculture is evolving, the importance of trial and error, and how technology and innovation can help farmers adapt to changing markets and climates. His forward-thinking approach offers valuable insight for anyone considering diversification. ๐ŸŒฑ


Tomโ€™s journey is a fascinating look at how farms can pivot, adapt, and thrive with new ideas and sustainable practices. If youโ€™re interested in future-proofing your farm, this episode is one you wonโ€™t want to miss! ๐Ÿš€


Enjoy!
