  Big Truck

  Street food

  I serve loaded fries and smashburgers from a converted horsebox with a proper oven in it. Full gas safety and PAT paperwork — I bring it to every event.

  I forage and preserve — bramble, elderflower, rowan, rosehip from fruit grown in the Clyde Valley. Tasting spoons on the stall — try before you buy.

  Wee Emporium

  Vintage & upcycled

  I restore and sell mid-century glassware sized properly, because vintage sizing lies. I take trade-ins at the stall.

• 

  Wee Kitchen

  Bakery & cakes

  I bake Scottish oven scones, empire biscuits and tablet-topped brownies fresh the morning of the market, never the night before. Gluten-free options on the middle table — clearly labelled and made separately.

  Whin Scotland

  Knitwear & textiles

  I weave scarves and throws on a floor loom in Scottish lambswool from a mill in the Borders. Everything’s made to be worn in actual Scottish weather.
