Meet the makers
Anvil Craft
Jewellery
I solder fine chains and stacking rings cast in my kitchen from recycled offcuts. Every piece is made to order and sized on the day where I can.
Anvil Forge
Jewellery
I hand-forge everyday pieces in brass and silver with a hammered finish that catches the light.
Bias Cloth
Clothing
I make children’s clothes from deadstock cotton in sizes 6 to 24 because that is the whole point. Alterations on the stall, free, while you wait.
Butter Kitchen
Bakery & cakes
I bake naturally leavened sourdough overnight with organic stoneground flour from a mill in Berkshire. I sell out by one most weeks, which I take as the point.
Facet Made
Jewellery
I hand-forge everyday pieces in brass and silver with a hammered finish that catches the light.
Green Farm
Cheese & charcuterie
We make raw-milk cheese from our own herd grass-fed, organic, and everything the animals eat is grown here. Tasting is compulsory, buying is not.
Hedgerow Store
Preserves & pantry
I make small-batch chutneys and jams from fruit gleaned around Bucks that would otherwise go to waste. Labels are printed on recycled stock and hand-written.
Honey Oven
Bakery & cakes
I make Polish babka and cinnamon buns in small batches, in my own kitchen, licensed and inspected.
Kitchen Kitchen
Preserves & pantry
I make small-batch chutneys and jams from fruit gleaned around Bucks that would otherwise go to waste.
Lather Works
Bath & body
I make simple skincare with five ingredients or fewer using British-grown botanicals wherever they exist.
Little Pot
Streetfood
We do one thing — a proper toasted sandwich with everything prepped from scratch the morning before.
Orchard Store
Preserves & pantry
I preserve whatever the orchards give me using surplus from farms within twenty miles.
River Kitchen
Ceramics
I throw functional stoneware on the wheel glazed in soft oatmeal, sage and off-white.
Slip Studio
Ceramics
I throw and hand-carve porcelain in muted glazes tested over two years. Everything is fired twice in a shared kiln in Brentford.
Sourdough Loaf
Bakery & cakes
I make Polish babka and cinnamon buns in small batches, in my own kitchen, licensed and inspected. The seconds bag at the end of the day is the best value on the stall.
The Press Cordial
Drinks
We roast single-origin coffee in small drums on direct trade beans, with the price paid printed on every bag.
The Wander Kitchen
Streetfood
We do one thing — a proper toasted sandwich with everything prepped from scratch the morning before.
The Wheel Kitchen
Ceramics
I hand-build slab vessels finished with ash glazes I mix myself. Seconds go on the table at the end and always sell first.
The Wick Light
Candles & home fragrance
I make beeswax candles from our own hives with wax from twelve hives in the Chilterns.
Wander Kitchen
Streetfood
We make Neapolitan-style pizza from a converted trailer on a single gas ring, which keeps the menu honest. We serve until it runs out, which on a good Sunday is by two.
Wild Store
Preserves & pantry
I ferment hot sauces and kimchi with no pectin, no preservatives and nothing you cannot pronounce.
