Home grown #raspberries !!
We got our first harvest of 3 berries on the first of September, then another harvest of 3 a few days ago. And now this!!
So exciting!!Out plant is still quite small, and only two canes have fruit, but even so, there are a ton more future berries to come!

Double harvest: #raspberries and #RenewableEnergy - #FruitLogistica
Excerpts: "Based on current findings, strawberries do not thrive under #SolarPanels, so this combination of crops does not have a promising future. This was the conclusion of a Wageningen University study on fruit cultivation beneath #photovoltaic systems.
Strawberries grown beneath solar panels with 25 to 50 per cent light transmission experienced a significant drop in yield – by 25 to 30 per cent.
The situation was quite different for raspberries, however: under solar panels with 40 per cent light transmission, the harvest yield fell by only five per cent, and the quality of the fruit remained unchanged. At the same time, the panels reduced evaporation and water consumption, protecting the berries from burns and heat peaks.
The scientists also expect positive effects on #WaterConsumption and protection against #ExtremeWeather conditions.
[...]
One clear advantage is that raspberries are currently grown under rain protection films that have to be replaced every five to seven years. This equates to a significant amount of plastic that would no longer be required if solar modules were used instead. And they last at least ten years."

Three good things for #Friday:
1. Feeling good about really being heard by people I count on to keep my life going.
2. Heard from a friend I haven't seen in ages, asking if we can meet up and talk about a geeky #materials topic.
3. #Garden is doing its thing, giving #raspberries and #poppies in abundance.
