💒 We missed Angus show last week with the cattle as mum and dad were away to a wedding on the Isle of Bute for the beautiful couple Emma McAlister and James Wightman. A huge congratulations to this wonderful pair. ❤️
🚛 So instead we attended Alyth show on Saturday to give the cattle an outing before the Royal Highland Show and they behaved well and picked up a few prizes along the way.
🥇 Drumsleed Rachel- Any Other Breed Champion and Reserve Interbreed Champion.
🥇 Drumsleed Steel- Best Opposite Sex to Champion (He was the only bull there so wasn’t hard!!)
🏆 And these two joined up and won the Interbreed Pairs.
A great day all round, thank you to the judges, stewards and everyone involved with Alyth Show.

The first year since I was 15 (that was only around 10 years ago!! 🙈😂) that I haven’t done silage.
The guys are going to have a late night tonight but are pushing on to let us get away to the Royal Highland Show in the morning.
A massive thank you to the team for battling weather and breakdowns.

“I am deeply honoured to receive this recognition. Agritourism has the power to strengthen farm businesses, connect people with food production and create thriving rural communities. This award reflects the dedication of the many farmers, businesses, volunteers and partners I have had the privilege to work alongside over the years. Together, we have built a movement that is helping shape the future of Scotland’s rural economy.”
