Apple tree is finally putting out some fruit that actually looks good. Still probably not tasty though.

Aster amellus (Hybrid European Michaelmas daisy)
At this time of year, many species of flowering plants have set seed but asters in general are at their peak. Michaelmas daisies are named after St. Michael whose feast day falls on September 29.
In 1637, John Tradescent the Younger brought North American asters to Europe. These were crossed with Aster amellus to create the many beautiful varieties that grace our gardens today.

Experiment in Mead Making
With help from The Wildcrafting Brewer by Pascal Buadur, I’m hoping to turn some of this years first honey harvest into a batch of mead made from the local land to be used for ritual celebrations, offerings, and the like.
Step one: Harvest honey! (✔️)
Step two: cultivate wild yeast [✔️]
Hopfully using some peels from wild apples and raw honey will create an active wild yeast starter to use for brewing. In a few days it should be nice and bubbly (fingers crossed).

Asters—they waited all summer barely noticeable and now they cover the landscape in millions of blooms just as the goldenrod starts to fade.
