Meet the makers
Bothy Beer Co
Craft beer & cider
I make a low-alcohol range and a hazy IPA with Scottish-grown barley wherever I can get it.
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.
Fern Plants
Plants & flowers
I grow houseplants and propagate my own cuttings on a nursery outside Kirkintilloch.
Rowan Distillers
Gin & whisky
I make a spiced rum and a coffee liqueur in batches of about 200 bottles at a time. I hold my own occasional licence for every event I trade at.
Whin Bakehouse
Bakery & cakes
I make traybakes and celebration cakes fresh the morning of the market, never the night before. Everything sells out by lunchtime, which I take as a good sign.
