These are good sellers but they require an acid soil. The Change
Underground System sweetens the soil over time. This can be counteracted
by adding pine needles or eucalypt leaves to the mulch placed around the
plants.
Cultivar options allow for a longer harvesting period and value
adding by processing is also an option. |
These can become weeds and are declared so in some regions. Blackberries
are the usual culprit but the thornless variety are generally
acceptable. Loganberry, raspberry, youngberry are all good sellers and
excellent for jam making. The only problem you may face is eating more
than you bring into the packing shed. |
These two are closely related. Gooseberries require more winter cold
than most soft fruit so that limits location but these "old fashioned"
fruits are due for a come back. Being small means you have time to deal
with gooseberries and currants properly.
Quality is the key to The System. These fruits fit perfectly. |
For warmer climates these fruits are wonderful. Dried, fresh, juiced
or turned into wine.
A long term planting, so be careful where you place your grapes, they
will be there for a long time. Other than that, plant a few different
varieties, your soil type will determine which. |
Using The System, the soil as the basis of everything, you can grow
the best tasting strawberries in the world. Plant for a continuous
harvest, eat the very best yourself, sell the second best and turn the
others into jam, preserves and sauces.
Strawberries are plentiful but great strawberries are hard to find.
You can provide them! |
