Carissa, Iwan & Frankie decided one night over a bottle of wine that moving from North Wales to Portugal would be a good idea. Within a month they were on the road to Portugal to find the perfect piece of land to call their new home. We picked up Albi the cat along the way. Subscribe to follow our journey as we turn an old stone barn into our home, and learn the ropes of looking after a piece of land to make an abundant garden and one day, our very own winery.

The two of you are a delight to watch. You make a good team. I enjoy the conversations you have about how to go about doing something or other, you never seem to bicker or hold something or other against the other. You animals are also very loving, as I say your family is a delight to watch. Thank you. PS i dont know the name in english but the "precinto" you used to attached the stone to the end of the wooden pole will rot. I use them to attach my creepers to their support, and they eventually rot. I would suggest to use wire for that task.

Aww, Diogo looked so sweet tucked up like that. My Foxy does that, too. And that leap over little sausage. That tradition of that well thingie is excellent. I love old traditions. You could do with borrowing some sheep or goats from Nick and Andrea to get the grass down quickly, plus the poop would be good too. The lindon blossom tree... the leaves can be eaten in salads, the blossom can be eaten for a quick sweet treat and the fruit they bare is edible too. Iwan, you may want to consider resting a bit more. My old healed broken ribs hurt just watching you. Not only was there some argh, moments when you were helping with that well thing, but then you were bending over a lot, but the thing that really said ouch was pulling tangled, dead branches out of trees. Not allowing them to heal properly could end up with your recovery taking longer. As for you Carissa, girl, YOU ROCK. Okay an odd question is about your home made compost. How long was it composting and do you. Put egg shelles in as never saw any? My compost still has shells,even though i break them down. I have been told they take yrs to break down, but i include them as they add nutrients. X

Yes you can root the cuttings! We got a bunch of cuttings from our friends and rooted them, and our neighbours gave us some more cuttings yesterday. Great way to get free grape vines!
@FrankieOffGrid
@FrankieOffGrid Год назад
You definitely can take cuttings, the problem in Europe is the phylloxera beetle - unless the vines are grafted onto resistant root stocks they beetle will decimate the roots on un-grafted vines. It’s an interesting story - in the late 19th century the beetle basically destroyed all of Europe’s vineyards, the other type of vine - vitis labrusca - wasn’t susceptible to it so farmers tried grafting the old grape varieties onto this rootstock and is now seen on every vineyard in Europe.
@notyouraveragegringos
@notyouraveragegringos Год назад
@Frankie Off Grid Wow! Very interesting. I hadn't heard of that! Hopefully our cuttings do OK. We got some grape vines on sale at the Agriloja and planting the cuttings in separate rows so we'll be able to see the difference.
@FrankieOffGrid
@FrankieOffGrid Год назад
You absolutely never know.. they may grow really well, by now there are locations especially in large winegrowing regions where the beetle has been mostly wiped out - you’ll notice on the agriloja vines that they have a waxed part? That’s where the old cutting has been grafted onto the new rootstock - usually the 110R in Southern Europe - the tags may tell you.

LOOOOVE watching you too on your journey! Pleeeease get Iwan to make some videos for us solo females on how machinery works, switches etc his instructions are so easy to understand.... even the reef knot. Maybe he could create a playlist whilst he's still a bit tender. Pretty please Iwan!?? 💪☺️ and take it easy I get a bit anxious watching you. One love to you both ❤️🥰

Have you tried to replant hese offcuts of wine? There is a way to root them, and then you could have more of these lovely quality?

Unfortunately in Europe it’s not really possible to get any real success from doing this.. the vines planted here need to be on US or South African rootstocks to avoid the phylloxera beetle. I did try it in our first year and managed to get ten or so to take but they all died over last winter… I am on the look out for an uva americana vine though so maybe one day we can try it and make a whole vineyard from the one plant!
