Meet the makers

  • Argyll Smokehouse

    Fish & seafood

    I sell shellfish landed on the west coast landed at Tarbert the day before the market.

  • Ash & Clay

    Ceramics

    I make small-batch tableware fired twice in a studio in Glasgow. No two come out quite the same.

  • Bonnie Dog Deli

    Pet treats & accessories

    I make dog birthday cakes and pupcakes with no grain, no filler and no nonsense.

  • 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 at the Market

    Candles & home fragrance

    I make candles in salvaged whisky bottles with cotton wicks and a proper cure time. Sniff before you buy — the stall is set up for it.

  • Bruntsfield Store

    Preserves & chutneys

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

  • Clydeside at the Market

    Cheese & dairy

    I sell farmhouse cheese from small Scottish creameries churned twice a week and sold within days.

  • Fern Plants

    Plants & flowers

    I grow houseplants and propagate my own cuttings on a nursery outside Kirkintilloch. I’ll tell you honestly if a plant will die in your flat.

  • Grain Workshop

    Woodwork

    I turn bowls and boards from Scottish hardwood finished with food-safe oil and nothing else.

  • Heather & Comb

    Honey & bees

    I sell raw honey, comb and beeswax wraps from about forty hives, moved with the season. Candles and wraps from the wax, so nothing’s wasted.

  • Hedgerow Pantry

    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.

  • Kelpie Bakehouse

    Bakery & cakes

    I bake sourdough and slow-fermented bread in small batches from a converted garage kitchen. Everything sells out by lunchtime, which I take as a good sign.

  • Orchard & Jar

    Preserves & chutneys

    I make Seville marmalade and seasonal jellies with no pectin and no artificial anything. Christmas gift boxes from October.

  • Press Illustration

    Art & prints

    I cut and print lino by hand in two or three colours, printed in my kitchen.

  • Rolling Truck

    Street food

    I cook Sri Lankan street food to order from my mum’s recipes, adapted for a queue. Full gas safety and PAT paperwork — I bring it to every event.

    website@rollingtruck

  • Rowan Larder

    Bakery & cakes

    I bake Scottish oven scones, empire biscuits and tablet-topped brownies in small batches from a converted garage kitchen. I take pre-orders through Facebook and hand them over at the stall.

  • Skerry Atelier

    Jewellery

    I hand-forge everyday pieces in silver and brass with a hammered finish that catches the light.

    website@skerryatelier

  • Skerry 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.

    website@skerrydistillers

  • Sweetie Fudge

    Sweets & fudge

    I make handmade honeycomb and salted caramels tempered properly, which is why it snaps.
