Looks like the dog was more interested in catch and eat than catch and release… 🎣🐶

💛Have you discovered Yolk yet?

If you're visiting Milton of Crathes this weekend for our two-day Craft & Producers Market, be sure to pop into the independent businesses based here and show them your support.

Open for just two weeks, Yolk General Store has already become a favourite with visitors. Owner Eryn has created a beautiful space filled with thoughtfully curated pantry goods, homewares, stationery, books, textiles, scents and seasonal treasures.

But why the name Yolk?

We asked Eryn to share the story behind it:

"The name Yolk reflects a lot of what I wanted the shop to feel like: warm, familiar, nourishing and memorable. It's about the centre of things – daily rituals, good objects, conversation and connection. It also has an abstract rural quality that felt right for the Farmhouse setting without leaning too heavily into Scottish clichés.

"That, and a link to a nickname my closest friends call me!"

Whether you're searching for a thoughtful gift, a treat for your home or simply a little inspiration, Yolk is well worth a visit this weekend. 💛
