Scarff’s Farms

@JamesOCaston More Bacchus and a few Pinot Gris

@JamesScarff Very exciting. What variety are you putting in?

6 years later and we are planting again! Vineyard number 2 in the ground! 👌🏻 #englishwine #vineyard #wine #grapes

@ag_recruiter You are not the only ones by far! I’m looking to re drill best part of 30ha that the wet and the slugs have taken. Painful!

Drilled a month ago. 80 acres. Not a God damn plant. Farming. It's not for the faint hearted is it?

@danholley_ @Jes_Squirrell

@JamesScarff @Jes_Squirrell out of interest, how much did you record on 19th-20th (Babet)?

EAST: A spell of very heavy rain in parts of the region overnight. Unofficial gauges between Tiptree and Wickford suggest 30-40mm fell. Wattisham has now recorded 249mm this month, which is 396% of its October average. Its previous record for any month was 156mm in November 1970

@Jes_Squirrell @danholley_ We are up to 188mm in another close opposite direction to Wattisham. Something doesn’t add up!

@danholley_ Although our Cordulus Station data (only 1.5km away) is way, way different. Someone’s data is flawed, but I’m not sure who’s 🤷🏼‍♂️

@spskelton Booked to start picking in Suffolk next Wednesday. Crop looks massive on the vine, backed up by extensive data collection. Time will tell next week!

There seem to be lots of grapes being offered for sale this year. Many more than usual. I assume this is because crops are large. Does anyone have any actual picking yields yet? Tonnes per ha or acre.

On the day that we started preparing the land for our next vineyard, the @rafredarrows gave a cracking display over our existing vineyard.

Showcasing the finest wines produced in East Anglia, the @WineGBEast Awards will take place on 19th August at Burnt House Vineyard. fruitandvine.co.uk/winegb-east-aw… #eastanglianwine #winegb #winegbeast #englishwine #englishwinemovement #winery #wineries #winemaker #winemaking

@bensteed_ Walton’s confidence on the ball was missed today. Brilliant start to the season though!

A pleasant surprise of an evening. It’s not dry, but it’s drying and it might be the driest it’s going to be for a while! 🙈#harvest23

@cutlerstom I’ve changed over to a @SencropUK system and it’s not stopped raining since! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Top tip for farmers in a wet harvest. Changed my rain gauge on Thursday for this one and it’s only recorded 0.5mm of rain so far. Massive improvement, would recommend everyone does this.

Once again we are opening the 2023 East Anglian Wine Awards to the public - a unique opportunity to sample wines from across East Anglia. Tickets available here: buff.ly/3XN4YTp

@DemoCavey76 @JohnDeere @TuckwellGroup Yes thank you! Thanks for popping in!

@JamesScarff @JohnDeere @TuckwellGroup Did you get to grips with it ok?😎

Changing shades of green. The @JohnDeere 3420 had been on the farm from new 17 years ago. Owes us nothing and has been a fantastic machine. Let’s hope it’s new replacement is just as good! Straight off the truck and put to work today. @TuckwellGroup

@SkyAgriculture @stocksag Can this be retro fitted to a 2021 machine?

The EasyDrill can now be spec'd for even more versatility! 🟡 5 separately metered hoppers to drill 5 different products/seed 🟡 3 separate distribution circuits 🟡 3 different depths - disc coulters, placement tubes and spreader plates ow.ly/2snN50P9f3Z @stocksag

2023 crop potential looking good in the vineyard. Big bunches safely through flowering. @Burnthousewines #vineyard #suffolk #grapes #wine #summer #englishwine

Carrington Peas looking stunning in the sun. Best looking crop of peas we have had in a while. 👍🏻

After an amazing year last year, selling out of our wine before Christmas, this weekend sees the opening and launch of our new wines. We are open Saturday and Sunday 10-6. We are very excited for everyone to come and see what we have been up to! #wine #BH burnthousevineyard.co.uk

@TWBFarms Diversified in to viticulture in 2017/2018. Not looked back since. A great industry to be in that is going places!

Diversification R&D 🤔
