Meet the makers
Auld Feast
Street food
I run a Polish street food kitchen — pierogi and bigos using Scotch beef and a griddle that never gets cold.
Bonnie Sweets
Sweets & fudge
I make handmade honeycomb and salted caramels using a recipe that hasn’t moved in sixty years.
Bothy & Wick
Candles & home fragrance
I pour soy candles in reusable glassware scented with essential oils, never synthetics.
Bothy Cider
Craft beer & cider
I brew a dark mild and a Scottish 80/- in a ten-barrel plant outside Alloa. Mixed cases are the easiest way to try the range.
Bothy Kiln Co
Ceramics
I throw porcelain and carve it by hand glazed in oatmeal, sea green and off-white. Seconds table always — they go first.
Bramble Hives
Honey & bees
I keep bees across Renfrewshire and sell the honey never heated, never filtered beyond the coarse strain. Heather honey sells out within three markets.
Corrie Workshop
Ceramics
I hand-build slab vessels with a matte speckle and a raw clay foot. Seconds table always — they go first.
Kiln Workshop
Ceramics
I hand-build slab vessels with a matte speckle and a raw clay foot.
Loch Fyne & Creel
Fish & seafood
I hot- and cold-smoke salmon and haddock over oak in a smokehouse I built myself.
Loch Illustration
Art & prints
I paint Scottish coastline in watercolour and print them on heavy cotton paper. Cards keep the lights on; prints pay for the paper.
Ochil Meats
Butcher & game
I make square sausage, black pudding and haggis shot within twenty miles and processed the same week.
Retro Emporium
Vintage & upcycled
I restore and sell mid-century glassware painted with low-VOC chalk paint. I take trade-ins at the stall.
Rowan Est. 2019
Bakery & cakes
I make laminated pastries — croissants, cruffins, morning buns in small batches from a converted garage kitchen.
Whin Bath Co
Soap & skincare
I make balms and salves from foraged plants cured for six weeks before it ever reaches a stall. Plastic-free packaging throughout.
Whin Preserves
Preserves & chutneys
I make small-batch jams, jellies and marmalades using whatever the season gives me. Tasting spoons on the stall — try before you buy.
Whin Spirits
Gin & whisky
I make a rhubarb and a navy-strength gin picked on the Ayrshire coast in early summer.
