I'm just curious about this tea thing in Scotland ... I mean, who knew they were good at growing tea? It seems like a pretty cool setup with the cattle grazing on the hills, but what's up with all these farmers leaving their land? Is it really that hard to make a living off tea or is there just some bigger issue going on? I guess we'll have to keep listening to find out more
Scotland's tea game is strong, I mean who would've thought a place famous for whisky and bagpipes would be crushing it in the tea scene? The unique farming method is genius, it's like they're getting two products out of one. But on the flip side, you gotta feel bad for the farmers who had to leave their family plots behind. I get that some want modernization and growth, but others just wanna protect the environment and sustainability of tea production. It's a tough spot. And yeah, visiting one of these estates sounds like an amazing experience, all things considered. The podcast is doing a great job shedding light on this mystery
Scotland's tea industry is just another example of how the government's lack of support for local farmers will always lead to a mass exodus of people leaving their ancestral lands behind... it's all about making a quick buck . Those who are abandoning their family plots are probably just trying to make ends meet in a world that doesn't value traditional farming methods anymore... it's not like they're just running away from the chaos or anything .
