Tap o’ Noth Permaculture - a Food Forest Farm
United Kingdom
Registrace 2. 03. 2012
Tap o' Noth Farm is an 8 acre Permaculture designed food forest farm and family homestead situated on the side of Tap o' Noth hill, Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
The farm began in 2012 with the aim of demonstrating cold climate, applied permaculture design and as a place to take care of the family's basic needs.
James and Rosa have been producing ecologically grown veggies for a 50 member CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) veg box scheme for the past six years while keeping dairy cows and goats, sheep and geese to graze their areas of food forests and wood fuel coppice and chickens to sell eggs alongside the organic veggies. The farm has hosted many visitors, volunteers and students, offering Permaculture Design Courses and workshops on regenerative living and reskilling on traditional crafts and lifestyles. The aim is to create a farm that functions like a forest ecosystem. They make vlogs too.

MILKING GETS EASIER | WHAT is the STRAW YARD? | FRESH GRASS for the NEW COWS | PERMACULTURE FARMING
VLOG 100?!!?
Milking our Dexter house cow gets easier now she comes to be milked without having to catch her and convince her to come to the stanchion. While her milk yield is still low it is going up.
We look at the design of our silvopasture grazing system and set up our electric fencing to make a new grazing cell for the cows as well as one for the chickens to come out and follow the cows on their rotation.
We look at the straw yard, a permaculture designed area for our laying hens which uses a polytunnel as a hen house. James comes up with some ideas of how to keep the hen house cool in this hot weather.
We finish the day by heading up to our beautiful swimming pond and cooling off in the water.
About Tap o' Noth Farm:
Hi, we're James and Rosa! Welcome to Tap o' Noth Farm, an 8 acre permaculture designed food forest farm/homestead in Aberdeenshire, NE Scotland. We practice home scale to small farm scale agroforestry and regenerative agriculture methods to produce organic fruit and vegetables, raise dairy cows and goats for all our raw milk needs, geese to graze our silvopasture and coppice systems and laying hens, moved around in a Chickshaw, for an abundance of eggs.
Our videos aren't 'how to's' - more videos to give a glimpse into our lifestyle and hopefully inspire you to bring aspects of what you see into your own life.
FOOD FOREST BERRIES
2024 sees work begin in establishing a small scale, permaculture designed family soft fruit enterprise that will rub shoulders with our other on-farm businesses. We aren't trying to compete with or replicate the large soft fruit commercial farms that are common place here in Scotland and around the world but showcase a small scale, ecologically diverse model that will work with our family farm's values and needs both economically and environmentally. Our sales will be direct to the consumer, working with our local community via a Community Supported Agriculture model (CSA), either through weekly fruit shares or by offering a pick your own/U pick. The berries grown in the market garden will add to the top fruit - apples and plums - that we have already been growing in food forest systems for nearly a decade.
HEDGE + FURROW'S OFF-GRID SHEPHERDS HUT
Come and stay on the farm in our traditional shepherds hut, complete with pizza oven and wood fired outdoor bath, set amongst fields, trees and beside a beautiful pond.

I’m sad to hear that Saskatoon berries have made it past Canada. I liked the exclusivity. I’m extremely happy that other places get to enjoy this little purple berry. Frozen is best. I know most of you won’t be able to spot a leaf on a drive through the wilds of if it’s origin, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and British Columbia, I know I can. I know several places of wild growth. I’m happy and mad.
your garden is gorgeous
Cheers
How peaceful. But what was Damson shouting at 😂
It can be peaceful here sometimes!! ;) She had only been on the farm for a day and was calling for her calf that she had just been separated from :(
Forgot to ask in my earlier comment but do you have a plan on deterring birds from eating the berries at all or are raspberries quite good at protecting themselves from the birds? I had a small bush in the garden and was surprised that most of them escaped the attention of the birds but they were pretty well hidden and covered by their own thorns.
TIL that you got different varietes of raspberries like earlies and autumn! Amazing. Just curious when do the early ones become available for picking? And also - do you have a specific place you source these from in Scotland? Thanks! Great vid btw!
Do you have any updates? Are you still utilizing this method? Are you finding it creates weed seed free compost? Thank you
What a fantastic evolving system. Thanks for sharing your journey. Watching your vids from Australia and interested to know what temp is 'hot for Scotland'? Beautiful blue sky. I'd love to come and WOOF with you guys one day.
Thank you! Mid twenties we all start feeling the heat, verging on 30 would be very hot for us! Although, after living in Oz for a while, I miss the heat!
@@TapoNothFarmdid the bentonite fix the ponds?
Such a beautiful place. Your cat seems really big! :D
Dung beatles for cow pat control
love the wee Dexter!
Love how Lilli helps and chats away. She is growing up so quickly.
Looks fantastic. Great that we got some beautiful hot days in before heading back to cold, wintery June!
One way to reduce the fly pressure in the pasture is to move a posse of the chickens in a moveable chick shaw 3 days after the cows leave and they go right to the cow patties and eat the larvae and spread the manure.. win win.... improves pasture, less flies, less bought feed for the chickens, less moving of chicken manure...
oh my goodness you just said you plan to do that very thing!
The fence system looks great. Is the lower wire not live? It didn't look as if you are strimming or scything the grass around the base of the fence. I also wondered if Rosa was moving the wire away from the shrub but maybe not. You don't have issues with the fence shorting? Inspirational and entertaining as always, thank you.
Hi there! We often do cut the grass below the bottom line as it is electrified. In this instance we just trod the grass down which we felt was enough but now, a month later, we'll most likely have to scythe/strim etc before putting up the fence as the growth is a lot more. We also carry a pruning saw to cut back branches that are touching the lines or at least hanging close that might temp browsing which will then pull the branch onto the fence. It's different every grazing cell, every month really. Thanks so much for the support!
@@TapoNothFarm Thank you for the reply. I visited The Inkpot farm in Lincolnshire at the weekend and saw their cell grazing system. Animals are missing from my site, for some good reasons, but I'm always interested in seeing how folks like yourself integrate cell grazing with other systems. Great videos!
Instead of showing us your face and a bit of your arm pointing, turn the camera around. We’re not here for/entertained by your face.
the difference in damson! Amazing how she goes to the stand herself now!
Yeah she has very quickly learned the drill!
Haying with my scythe is probably my favorite activity out there. We only do a quarter acre Hay Plot for our Rabbit's Winter feed. 14 breeders we've gotta kerp alive. We get 3 cuttings. Two of 'em go for the growoutsv n season, the remainder is saved for Dec-March feeding when pretty much nothing grows here.
I didn't know about tree hay! What a great and smart permaculture method! Thanks for sharing this knowledge. God bless 🙏
What a lovely little film ❤
❤️
Love love loved this! So inspiring with the cows and especially loving all you are learning about Dexters!! 🌿🌱
Hey Leah! Thanks so much for watching...you'll have to come meet the coos some day soon X
Very nice kind of farming!
Somehow, this was the exact video I needed today 🙂so peaceful and beautifully captured. So looking forward to following along with your journey with the adorable cows!
Very artistic video! It's a beautiful compilation with blend of video and sound. I love the close up of the cow eating with the powerful sound.
Nice to see yous to see yous nice good stuff guys
A girl after my own heart. I could listen to my cows chew for days. 😊
So blessed with those sounds 😊
Beautiful nature/animal sounds. So peaceful. 😌
First!
Lillie’s sweet good mornings were so precious. I’m glad you are focusing on family.
I admit, I do sometimes wonder about a Jersey here. It'll be interesting seeing how they work out for you.
is this not a better way to live than feminism?
Top of the morning to you
👍👌
When did that tiny baby turn into a walking , talking little girl! How time flies.
I was amazed when she said Romanesco! It's quite a long word, and she pronounced it so well. She looked to be having such a fun time playing with her mother's hair too :)
Fantastic Vlog, I’m missed your Smallholding updates and goodness I love the cows. I met some Dexters at the weekend and really love the idea of milking them x
Thanks you!
Love your videos. This takes me back to my childhood in the NW Highlands croft with our milking cow Mum made butter and crowdie and we children took pails of milk to old aunties. More videos please ❤
Sounds wonderful!
Congratulations on getting cows, I am sure you will love them! We love the opportunity to make all our dairy and fresh milk/cream. More importantly, you will have so much compost! One thing I should mention, health and safety, as a fellow jersey owner, be careful with your position when you milk, do not have your face in hoof range , if she kicks( rope snaps, a fly goes by,needs a pee 😅) she will break your jaw. Enjoy the journey!
Thank you!
What a great childhood for Lilli. She's a very lucky girl. I've also just planted out my peas in a 'forest' of hazel brash. Looks a lot more interesting than bamboo. Keep at it!
Great to see you and the vegetables again, but really sad to see the goats gone, use to love seeing them as I was brought up with goats and they are such characters. Loved seeing the relationship between Rosa and the goats, but glad they have a good home. Lily has such a wonderful upbringing with your way of life, pure magic. Thanks
They might come back one day!
Butter and cheese and rich milk…..maybe just the wrong goats….Nigerian dwarfs are supposed to be best for that, and you could cross Nigerian dwarfs with Nubian which would also get you the same but more volume…..just saying 😊
Hi, James, Rosa, and Lily. So good to see you all. I’m looking forward to seeing more of your vlogs❤️❤️❤️
Delightful as always. We have loved milking our Dexters in Australia; Jersey's too; on our 30 acres. Always such a great time listening to your calm and joyfilled vlogs. Thank you, James, Rosa, and Lily xxx love the pea sticks
Thanks so much for watching!
Lilli is so sweet when she gave the good morning to the chickens 💚
Enjoyed the video--Glad to see you all back full of the joys of spring. I have missed them immensely. And Hey-History repeating itself with the cows---you'll have a wonderful stone cold dairy in the house for all the mouth watering milk and cream and butter to come. New tatties 'n' butter -everybody's favourite.
Thanks so much!
What a lovely surprise they look beautiful 😍 love the music who is the artist? Thanks for the lovely video 😊
Its a song called Better than Two by the Visitants, thanks for watching!
This is really useful inspiration for our grazing system. We currently have geese grazing on previously permanent pasture but one day hope to do something very similar to this, integrating different live stock and trees!
Thanks so much guys!!
The honeyberry is deceptive. It turns purple and you think it’s ripe. Nope, wait several weeks until they get sweet when you eat one. Net them for sure or you won’t get any
We have a several-acre field of mature Honeyberry rows at my work just 90 mins drive from you. There is a big difference between the varieties but Aurora taste the best to me. If you fancy a look around just let me know!
Hi Jake, that's great to hear - is it one of the Scottish Honeyberry Growers farms?
@@TapoNothFarm it certainly was a couple of years ago but not sure if they are anymore. It seems the UK market is still small. In my opinion they are as good as blueberries if hand-harvested at the right time, but there is a range in ripeness on any given bush and they don't last long. Machine harvesting results in more unripe fruit so may only be suited to processed products that can be sweetened
