A nice wee haul from our plum tree that was sadly damaged in the high winds. We’re going to have a go at propping it up to see if we can save it. Meanwhile, plum jam is being cooked up today.

After completing @plantlife.loveplants self-led e-learning course and armed with a little more knowledge to ID these fungi, here's the first one I encountered on my walk across one of our fields today.
I think it's a Scarlet Waxcap - Hygrocybe coccinea (it could be Hygrocybe splendidissima) and I am always happy to be corrected by someone more expert than me.

It’s Waxcap time of year. Here at The Lint Mill we are lucky to have acres of unimproved grassland which is crucial habitat for this beautiful genus of fungi. I can absolutely recommend @plantlife.loveplants self-led e-learning course. It helps you learn more about grassland fungi and how to identify them. It’s fun, full of useful resources and absolutely free! Link in bio.

The ACV (apple cider vinegar) is at the ‘hard cider’ stage and is fermenting nicely. It’s filling the kitchen with a pretty alcoholic fug when it gets its stirring.

Well, wee Ivy was spayed yesterday so it’s quiet, recovery time here at The Lint Mill. She doesn’t seem to mind her Buster Cone! Thank you to Two Rivers Vets for their usual high standard of care and attention. #miniwire #miniwirehaired #goodvets #postoprecovery

After a decade, Peter May has returned to the Hebrides in his latest novel ‘The Black Loch’. The plot features the parlous state of the Scottish Salmon industry and as I passed the Leaping Salmon Millennium sculpture in Peebles (itself in a parlous state), I was reminded of this journal entry I wrote in 2019, explaining why you won’t find this once Scottish delicacy on the menu at The Lint Mill. Link in bio.
