  Argyll Smokehouse

  I sell shellfish landed on the west coast landed at Tarbert the day before the market. Ice and a chilled counter, so power matters to me.

  Clyde Valley Farm

  I grow soft fruit — strawberries, raspberries, tayberries without a drop of chemical fertiliser. Ugly veg goes half price by noon.
