Joe and Dawn had a great night out at the Scottish Rural Awards at Dynamic Earth in Edinburgh on 21^st March. We were finalists in the Artisan Food category. Joining us at our table were fellow Muileach Dave Sexton and his colleague from Mull Eagle Watch, which was also shortlisted. Making up the party were gin makers from Jura and Colonsay and a crofter from Lewis, so it was a real island affair.

Joe reacted very enthusiastically when it was announced that we were winners, giving host Dougie Vipond a warm embrace! We really didn’t expect to win, especially among so many worthy finalists, so it was a real surprise.
