Every stall here packs in paper, glass or compostable material. No exceptions.
Meet the makers
Ash Harbour
Ceramics
I throw functional stoneware on the wheel glazed in soft oatmeal, sage and off-white. Everything is fired twice in a shared kiln in Brentford.
Bias Studio
Clothing
I upcycle wool coats and jackets with the original labels kept in as a record. Everything goes home in a paper bag or your own.
Bramble Kitchen
Preserves & pantry
I preserve whatever the orchards give me using surplus from farms within twenty miles.
Brass Workshop
Jewellery
I cast small sculptural rings shaped around the wearer rather than a trend. Boxes are card, not plastic — the little bags are cotton.
Chalk Cheese
Cheese & charcuterie
We age farmhouse cheddar on the farm in a cave under the barn, which sounds grander than it is. We wrap in waxed paper — no plastic on the stall at all.
Copper Pantry
Preserves & pantry
I make marmalade from Seville oranges once a year in copper pans, twelve jars at a time.
Cullet House
Glass
I fuse and slump kiln-formed glass from bottles collected at these very markets.
Cutting Room
Plants & florals
I grow houseplants from cuttings in peat-free compost, in terracotta rather than plastic.
Glaze Larder
Ceramics
I throw functional stoneware on the wheel glazed in soft oatmeal, sage and off-white. Mugs, jugs and serving bowls made to be used daily.
Marbled Papers
Stationery
I hand-bind notebooks with recycled paper and linen thread, sewn not glued.
Relic Salvage
Vintage & upcycled
I sell carefully chosen vintage glass and china nothing bought to resell from a wholesaler, ever. Nothing here is new, which is the entire point.
Roam Kitchen
Streetfood
We run a small Ethiopian kitchen and every box, fork and cup we hand over is compostable.
Rush Homewares
Homewares
I sew cushions from vintage fabric using curtains and blankets from house clearances. Made to be handed down rather than replaced.
The Beeswax Room
Candles & home fragrance
I roll and dip pure beeswax tapers scented only with essential oils. The seconds shelf is candles with a wonky top and a full burn time.
The Clay Field
Ceramics
I throw functional stoneware on the wheel glazed in soft oatmeal, sage and off-white. Mugs, jugs and serving bowls made to be used daily.
The Ember Table
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.
Wander Pan
Streetfood
We cook Sri Lankan hoppers to order using British free-range meat and vegetables from our own allotment. We serve until it runs out, which on a good Sunday is by two.
