Throughout the islands of Scotland, you'll find eggs, fresh baked bread, homemade jam, cabbage, scones, cakes, knitted hats, you name it. If someone can make it, bake it, grow it, sew it, it may turn up for sale in an Honesty Box.

As someone who was raised in a community with honesty boxes (and still uses them!) this piece by @kitchensisters.bsky.social speaks to me on so many levels.
It’s not a rural thing: it’s about community, and what is valued by them.
