All summer we’ve been struggling to keep the goats away from the grape vines, in order to protect our harvest of fruit. Vine leaves are one of the goats’ favourite foods and if they are allowed to they’re easily able to strip a vine in minutes, sometimes damaging it in the process and certainly scoffing the tasty grapes as well. With vines growing all over the farm and a bunch of fairly determined goats, it’s not been an easy task.
But now that the grapes have all been harvested and our wine, jeropiga and aguardente are safely underway we’re positively encouraging the goats to dig in. It’s no wonder they think we’re crazy!
