Bernard has chosen to dedicate part of his farm to raspberry cultivation. Today, he has three plots devoted to it. The particularity of his raspberries is that they are grown directly in the soil, where the roots draw all the nutrients they need. To help his fruits and shrubs grow well, Bernard alternates each year between fertilisation with manure and a complete organic fertiliser.

To allow the shrubs to breathe, regular weeding is necessary. Bernard and his team do this work by hand. They do not use chemical products or mechanical methods to remove weeds.

The raspberry plants spend the summer under protective covers to shield them from bad weather but also from insects that could damage them. To ensure a sufficient water supply, they are watered by sprinkling directly at the base of the plants. This watering method mimics rainfall for a natural effect on the plants. The leaves are not watered to avoid causing the fruit to fall before it is ripe.

Bernard carefully tends his shrubs so that they continue to produce the best fruit for as long as possible. The lifespan of a raspberry plot is around 14 years.
