Johnston's of Elgin mill

First day in a new role, and it's spent in the beautiful sun of Elgin, at the Johnston's of Elgin mill.

This is a company built by, and for community. Further research after, and I discovered the amazing training they provide to farmers around the world - including Afghanistan, Mongolia, and China - giving them skills in humane and sustainable management, animal husbandry, and general community care.

Cashmere has never been my thing, and I won't be working directly with JoE as a client, but this was a lovely discovery. Gives me hope.
