Dove cottage.
Oil on canvas. A lovely little ramshackle sanctuary just a few minutes walk from home. All of life is here!

If you're into growing your own veg, have a small holding or even just dream of doing so, please check these guys out on YouTube. They're fab and I don't know why they don't get many views as their channel is so lovely and informative.

A greenhouse seen from the outside with the door latched open
The inside of the greenhouse with 2 raised beds and chair at the far end
The inside of the greenhouse looking towards the open door with raised beds on each side
Making slow progress but I'm happy with that

The rest of the honey sold, the money used to buy those new colonies substantial weather proof hives and healthcare that they needed.
Now I have to close down the veggie garden, strim the orchard, do a lot of weeding and renovation of the flower garden and prep the cottage for winter. #Smallholding

Single Valais Blacknose ewe standing amid a rural scene. Black face, long shaggy white fleece, horns, black markings on legs. Grassland, trees and bushes in distance, dramatic sky.
Group of sheep. Mixed Ryeland and Valais Blacknose ewes. Rural scene with grassland, trees, hills and sky.
It must be about time for a couple more #sheep photos.

Side-by-side photos of a vintage caravan area. Left: bare ground with scattered stones, posts, weed growth, and a few plant pots. Right: same view after work- weedmat, tamped MOT base, bark mulch laid, sandstone chunks removed, planters arranged neatly, and the space looking tidier and more defined.
Before & after. Grass stripped, path dug, what felt like tonnes of sandstone hauled out. Levelled, weedmat down, MOT tamped, bark and planters in. Shed groundwork for the chicken feed next, then more path to sort.

Blackberries growing in the garden.
a close up of a blackberry growing in the garden
a bowl filled with picked blackberries from the garden.
We have an abundance of blackberries growing in the garden right now. It's wonderful. I've been making crumbles. They are also absolutely delicious, stewed #LowFoodMiles #sustainability #seasonality #PesticideFree #Harvest #Smallholding #OrganicLiving #HomeGrown

A freshly dug pond hole on the edge of a steep, wooded drop. The excavation has uneven, crumbly sides and a deep central section, with a spade resting inside. To the left, part of a white vehicle is parked close to the edge, and on the right dense green trees lean over the slope.
Digging a hole for a pond on the edge of a quarry.
Might be for wildlife. Might be for me when it all goes to hell.

Built a wall for our off-grid cabin.
Won’t save the world. Might save the shed.

Collection of sheep in the early morning hazy sunshine grazing happily. Tree and bushes in the background.
It's been a while since I posted a #sheep photo. Today is going to get very warm, fortunately we have plenty of shady spots to hang about in. #dumfriesandgalloway #scotland #smallholding #farming #sunshine

Hoping there’s room in freezer for this lot temporarily until I have time/energy to can it all.

Chaos in the new kitchen this afternoon.
Roasted tomato sauce and plums in the oven. Semi cuit tomatoes in the air fryer.
I should have been sanding and painting woodwork

Found what looked like a young hedgehog this afternoon. Not a good sight to see in daylight. Moved him to hedgerow with drink of water nearby. Hopefully he’ll recover ❤️
