And so it begins…the daily fly over of pink footed geese who overwinter here from Iceland. There will be many more over the coming weeks and this familiar sound spins us on our axis. #migration #autumn #overwintering #geese

It’s the autumn equinox today. The long summer nights have passed and we are now in a season of transition. The traditional festival of Mabon gives thanks for the harvest. So it’s a good moment to give thanks for a beautiful summer. Here are the autumn crocus blooming in the cottage as a reminder of the gradual turn of the year. #mabon #autumnequinox #autumn #earthturning

Now one of our annual traditions is blackberry picking with our lovely friends at their amazing home at Shortrigg. Thank you for your wonderful hospitality and for letting us raid your abundant hedgerows. We’re looking forward to making a few jars of our very favourite preserve, bramble jelly. #traditions #blackberrypicking #bramblejelly #hedgerow #foraging #windmill #malamute #inkyfingers

So, after two weeks of grazing, our Aspen saplings are a little forest of twigs, stripped of leaves and nibbled off bark. We have left an area hurdled off to show our next course participants the difference. #aspen #nutricious #soaysheep #regenerativeagriculture
