- Following on from the Agroforestry video we made @TapoNothFarm, we now look more deeply into their whole farm design, way of life, thoughts on regenerative agriculture, and their beautiful homestead. From keeping goats for making cheese and using the manure for the market garden, to using chickens as forest birds to help with managing and developing forest gardens, Tap o' Noth Farm have created a truly magical permaculture paradise in Scotland.

Thank you so much for watching and for James and Rosa from Tap o' Noth Farm! We are working on the next video that features the incredible Lynbreck Croft! Best wishes, Huw Richards & Sam Cooper
Beautifully done, thank you for making these films!!
Fantastic. And love the choice of music 😊
Huw and Sam--you're doing amazing work. These films are lush, beautiful, inspiring and each tells a story. The cinematography and editing are top tier. Hope these get noticed and marketed to a wider audience (looking at you, Netflix!) 😉
Thank you all for both spreading the word and proving that this lifestyle is possible and worth living.
Blessings to y'all
Thank you for sharing this wonderful place. In the region of Brazil, where I live, the winter is dry and the plants lose color. Summer is rainy.
Hi guys, im from Vietnam. We have a home forest farden where i grow different forest big wood trees, about 1,5 hecta. Around the house we grow vegies, herbs, fruit trees and keep some chickens, mostly for self consumption. We ve been doing this for 8 years. I hope to pass down the garden to my children, and hope they will appreciate it. Cheers from Vietnam!!

Beautiful may JESUS bless you
I'm also from Vietnam, Bac Lieu, having a small 500m2 applying agroforestry, aiming to have a bigger permaculture garden. Hope that I can connect with you to learn and share our passion
A pot brownie tree would be better
I'm not crying, you're crying !! Hands down, one of the best permaculture farms I've seen. The joy they have is palpable
I love how you were so moved by this. ❤
Love this series on Agroforestry! It is great to see people trying to recover our planet. As someone once said, "There are no passengers on Spaceship Earth. We are all crew."
Ahh thank you so much! More to come! And a great quote too!
Yes, we are the caretaking crew for sure.
God bless you both in all of your endeavors! God created man and woman with the ability to steward the earth and he never took that away from us despite what the rest of the world seems to think.
So inspiring! Permaculture method is the way to bring back the Eden on Earth!
Awesome job!

back in the 70s there was a tv show called The Good Life with Richard Briers and Felicity Kendal. about a couple who decides to throw out the modern world and basically turn their suburban home into a farm. all sorts of shenanigans ensue and if you have ever attempted farming of any sort you are bound to relate on more than a dozen subjects.
it was a comedy back then, but it's becoming a reality for more and more people and honestly what little i know about Briers i have a feeling he's laughing at the irony of it all.
it's a good show, and on youtube. look it up! might even give you some ideas. I took up farming 15 years ago but was already exposed to it by my grandparents when i was really young. i just never had my own patch of land to do anything.
we have all the usual farm animals including a couple of cows and their calf. this year we added honey bees and i reinstated my geese. i used to have a small gaggle of them but sold them. missed them terribly after five or six years...so i bought five goslings back in march. they're not honking yet but they do strut around like royalty and i love it... probably going to get rid of the turkeys. i have officially decided i am not a fan. and i want to cut back on chickens and do more with quail and pigeons.
it IS a good life though. at this moment i have a fridge full of milk from my goats and cow, i have fresh eggs, and home grown pork. i could absolutely make homemade scotch eggs and they ACTUALLY be homemade because it all came from my homefarm. i have so much milk but only one person outside my family is willing to come get it. i end up feeding the extra to my chickens or pigs 🙄 i would much rather give it to friends. but they've all been trained to reject it. like i said, been doing this 15 years. 15 years of raw milk, raising my kids on it, no one has died. only thrived.
I would love to see more people do this on whatever spot of land they can. if you have access to dirt you should be able to grow something to eat. people grow house plants in the city, college kids used to grow weed in their closets.... you can certainly grow tomatoes in your apartment if you really wanted to!!
and a goat takes up as much room as a dog - depending on the breed, large or small. and they will happily landscape for you for free, AND they make clean fertilizer AND milk which also makes cheese. and they don't bark or bite people.
ducks are a red meat and more sustainable than beef. their eggs are higher on the alkaline scale which is great if you're on a cancer diet.
pigeons and rabbits kept families alive during famines(pigeons also feed themselves and breed rapidly)
A lot of the plastic in the ocean was once wrapped around food.... but if you grow it yourself, or if you go to a local farmer and pick it yourself, there is no need for all that trash. that alone should motivate people.
Love love love ❤! your comment. Blessings from Bolivia.
Beautiful. Land, Animals seem well raised and properly nourished. Good on them, blessed by God. 🤗 🙌🙌🙌
This is my life dream right there in a 15 min video
Love what you have achieved guys , I cant wait to have my own farm and millions of others do too. What a world we will have then.
This is so comforting seeing how many people are creating these spaces. Where I live in Ohio our community is strongly against even a small community garden. Instead, they recently sprayed RoundUp over several hundred feet of streamside because it was bordered by "messy" weeds (Queen Anne's Lace) instead of neatly mowed grass and sprayed the trees to "get rid of birds" 😓
Good Lord! Where do you live? When everything dies, I guess they will put in astroturf and silk plants?
Wow that sounds nightmarish. But things can change. Where I live, people start rethinking many of these "It has to be neatly cut grass" notions. The local government often let's roadsides and other unused space flower (which looks lovely) and I could even convince my grandma to agree on only mowing her lawn and small meadow once a year, so all the wildflowers can bloom longer (under the condition that I do all the mowing and raking of the hay).
Roundup in the water and killing the birds 🤬unbearable unbelievable. But they’re worried about our climate ???? Humans have lost all IQ
Oh God, thats revolting... id suffocate and die in a day in that hell
@@gardengal7308 America isn't it?
Or is it Saddam's Iraq, where trees are cut down because they speak Farsi (there were no Iranian guerillas in the trees; Saddam was paranoid)?
First viewer from India 🇮🇳
Great to know so more permaculture farms in the UK! All the best from Permaculture farmer from Leicester!!!
I'd love to turn my home into something like this, a mini version of it of course. I love ducks they're cute and useful, goats too. And having greens that can produce fruits would be so great
This is simply wonderful. The music, the videography and the content. I love this so much. It’s just so relaxing and inspiring. Thank you so much.
Life is so beautiful like a dream in the farm!!!
I JUST LOVE PEOPLE LIKE THIS🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Love this couple - been following them for several yrs :)
Absolutely stunning and truly inspiring portrait. Love this one! 🍀
"be part of the solution" - love that
Huw I love these great films you and Sam produce. The artistry and love of subject shine through. It’s a blessing to see the green beauty during the cold winter months
It's our pleasure Daya!! :)
Beautiful landscape you have there… wow I’m stunned 🤩 🌳 keep with the dream 👏💪👏🌱

Watching this has been a wonderful way to start this cold and snowy day. Did I only imagine seeing blooming elderberry in the background around 6:05?
Simply Beautiful!!!
Beautiful village❤❤❤
Just wonderful
My heart was full of joy 😊💞 while watching.
Thank you
Amazing place.
I love this videos! Tap o' Noth farm is so inspiring:)
I can feel the enthusiasm in them.
Wonderful life!
Great job 💚💛❤ 🇪🇹
Hey Y'all, What a fantastic video. To see folks creating, working and living a life of permaculture and agroforestry is so inspiring. The animals are a combination of coworker commodity. They are living their best life of health and nutrition as well as fresh air and sunshine. When humans understand the nature of an animal and use the animal to work for them it is imperative to know when the job is complete and stop them before they continue until they cause damage. The damage being the fault of the human for not stopping them as animal are animals after all. Blessing on you both, your family, and your farm. Bye for now
Yet another beautiful project.
Amazing stuff everyone. Thanks for sharing.

I love farming .. I love to live in village
Regenerative agriculture.....you mean a private old time farm 😅❤
I really like what Rosa said about instead of keeping environmental land the same... As we know land either improves or gets less productive... I think the msg Rosa is sharing about improving land and not leaving it the same is what all environmental gov departments should be thinking about... I mean some land was tropical rainforest and they want to hold it in its less than rainforest capacity.... That imo is wrong... Land should always be improved... For example the amazon jungle was previously a manmade permaculture living entity... Look up terra preta....lets stop this conservation of leaving land the way it is.... Also alot of the animals that were in these areas previously are no longer there to maintain the conservation areas...
Your place is so beautiful and green, wish could visit one day❤
Love this.. hope i can make it one day...
Like it..
الطبيعة رائعة حقا
😍🤩hermoso video, bella manera de vivir, esa es la granja de mis sueños.
Tuyệt vời quá
Waiting for other video...
Im sure this channel will grow big and big..with hundred thousand of subscribers...
You two are so Blessed to have acreage as you do!
Question: How much time do you spend with the goats every day?
Do you need to milk them every day? How long does that take? Do you make cheese from the milk?
What happens when/if the goats eat up all the branches they can get? Do you have a better wooded area, or a de-nuded one? You have four goats, by my count. How many goats do you require per person? Do/can you sell any of the goat milk?
Your dog really gets excited when he senses that there are animals to herd! (Which is his function, by his breed.)
Great video -- this is where my heart is also, but I now live urban.
Hi there! Thanks so much for watching and your kind words. You've got quite a few questions there and as you can imagine we get a lot of questions asked of us, so we have come up with a way of managing such questions and the time it asks of us - www.patreon.com/tapfarm - there is a tier called Tap Chat where we can answer any questions or help with any consultancy. Best wishes and thanks again.
@@TapoNothFarm I ask soooo many questions that I'd go broke if anyone was charging!
Suffice it to say I really liked your video -- it made me dream of what I would like to have someday! Thanks so much for letting me imagine a Really Good Life!
About all those details about the goats, they would get worked out if I only had some LAND. I'm apartment-bound.

Have you subscribed to the Tap O' Noth channel? There are years of videos to watch there, which will answer all your questions.
I’m from North of Inverness now living in the Pacific Northwest and using log hive beekeeping to introduce your ideas here. More flora less commercialized bees.
Such a beautiful way of life, I’m feeling so inspired 🙏🏼

Bonjour! Superbe série sur les semis ;) Que faire lorsqu'ils ont filé? J'ai particulièrement des difficultés avec les laitues. Je ne peux pas baisser la température et je suis coté nord...
This is exactly what I need to see please keep up the good work. Also to any readers is there any other channels or resources i could learn more about regenerative farming and combining live stock with produce effectively
Thanks
Many of these farms are do inspiring but they (are) small scale units - nothing wrong with that. However, it would be fascinating to see the journey of say a 150-200 acre or so unit transform into a permacultural large scale commercial venture from typical traditional farming units, be they livestock, grain or commercial vegetables units.
I think it is really important to be able to show that it's perfectly feasible to be able to do this on a large scale and still have it be profitable, indeed, more profitable. Agricultural production drastically needs to change if we're to continue to feed the world, repair ecosystems, increase soil carbon sequestration & restore soil health.
I've heard of folks doing upwards of 3,000 acres permaculture. That was about a decade ago, im sure their farm has vastly matured since then.
👌👍
This is ideal
Cows are large and needs to many labors.
Very cool to see that up in Scotland! How long is the growing season up there?
Thanks - w're frost/snow free from mid may/early June (ish) to October.
@@TapoNothFarm wow, short! what do you do in the off season?
