R2Kast - People in Food and Farming/All In

Today we welcome Tom McVeigh onto the R2Kast! 🚜 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 he’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 he’s learned, from soil management to market demand, and the unexpected hurdles along the way. 🌰🌳

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. 🌱

Tom’s journey is a fascinating look at how farms can pivot, adapt, and thrive with new ideas and sustainable practices. If you’re interested in future-proofing your farm, this episode is one you won’t want to miss! 🚀

Enjoy!
