Meet the makers
Ash Company
Woodwork
I turn bowls on a pole lathe with hand tools, so you can hear me working at the market.
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.
Bramble Larder
Preserves & pantry
I make marmalade from Seville oranges once a year in copper pans, twelve jars at a time. Jars are returnable — bring one back and get 50p off.
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.
Ember Cart
Streetfood
We make Neapolitan-style pizza from a converted trailer on a single gas ring, which keeps the menu honest. Our meat is British free-range organic and we are happy to be asked about it.
Ember Spoon
Streetfood
We do one thing — a proper toasted sandwich with everything prepped from scratch the morning before.
Knot Studio
Woodwork
I make small furniture from storm-fallen timber finished with linseed oil and beeswax only.
Leaf House
Stationery
I letterpress cards on an 1890s platen and everything is printed one colour at a time. Named on the spine while you wait if you want.
Little Pot
Streetfood
We do one thing — a proper toasted sandwich with everything prepped from scratch the morning before. Our meat is British free-range organic and we are happy to be asked about it.
Morning Bakehouse
Bakery & cakes
I make Persian pastries and cardamom buns and nothing leaves the oven more than fourteen hours before market. Everything comes in paper — no film, no plastic windows.
Ore Workshop
Jewellery
I hand-forge everyday pieces in brass and silver with a hammered finish that catches the light.
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.
Smoke Streetfood
Streetfood
We run a small Ethiopian kitchen and every box, fork and cup we hand over is compostable.
Spoon Yard
Woodwork
I carve spoons and boards from green wood from London plane and cherry felled by the council anyway. No varnish, no lacquer, nothing you would not eat off.
The Clay Field
Ceramics
I throw functional stoneware on the wheel glazed in soft oatmeal, sage and off-white.
The Green Bench
Plants & florals
I propagate herbs and salad plants all grown outdoors within eight miles of the market. The whole stall is grown by me, which limits it and I like that.
The Wander Kitchen
Streetfood
We do one thing — a proper toasted sandwich with everything prepped from scratch the morning before. Vegan by default, with dairy as the option rather than the other way round.
Wheel Table
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.
Wild Drinks
Drinks
We brew kombucha in fifty-litre batches with nothing but tea, sugar, time and fruit.
Willow Studio
Textiles & accessories
I sew bags from salvaged sailcloth and canvas from offcuts that would otherwise be landfill. Every piece is one of a run of ten at most.
Windfall Larder
Preserves & pantry
I ferment hot sauces and kimchi with no pectin, no preservatives and nothing you cannot pronounce.
