Meet the makers
Ash Studio

I hand-build slab vessels with a matte speckle and a raw clay foot.
Ash Workshop
Woodwork
I turn bowls and boards from Scottish hardwood from windblown elm, ash and sycamore.
Bonnie Hound Co
Pet treats & accessories
I make air-dried single-ingredient treats so you can actually read the ingredients.
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. Mixed cases are the easiest way to try the range.
Bothy Fragrance
Candles & home fragrance
I make wax melts and reed diffusers scented with essential oils, never synthetics.
Braeside Candle Co
Candles & home fragrance
I make wax melts and reed diffusers cut and polished in the workshop.

I grow no-dig veg on two acres on a market garden in the Clyde Valley.
Braeside Sweets
Sweets & fudge
I make Scottish tablet and fudge using a recipe that hasn’t moved in sixty years.
Bramble Jams
Preserves & chutneys
I forage and preserve — bramble, elderflower, rowan, rosehip with no pectin and no artificial anything. Tasting spoons on the stall — try before you buy.
Bramble Soap Co
Soap & skincare
I make balms and salves from foraged plants scented with essential oils only. I list the full ingredients on every wrapper.
Braw Treats
Pet treats & accessories
I make air-dried single-ingredient treats from venison, salmon and beef liver.
Carse at the Market
Fruit & veg
I grow no-dig veg on two acres on a market garden in the Clyde Valley. I compost every scrap that doesn’t sell.
Corrie Studio
Knitwear & textiles
I weave scarves and throws on a floor loom dyed with heather, nettle and onion skin. Custom colours if you can wait three weeks.
Glasshouse Plants
Plants & flowers
I grow British cut flowers suited to actual west-of-Scotland weather. Everything’s grown, not bought in.
Hot Kitchen Co
Street food
I serve fresh pasta cooked on the pitch from a converted horsebox with a proper oven in it.
Kelpie & Wick
Candles & home fragrance
I hand-pour candles scented with Scottish botanicals with cotton wicks and a proper cure time. Sniff before you buy — the stall is set up for it.
Kelpie Loaf
Bakery & cakes
I make laminated pastries — croissants, cruffins, morning buns in small batches from a converted garage kitchen. Gluten-free options on the middle table — clearly labelled and made separately.
Kelpie Scotland
Hot drinks
I do hot chocolate with proper Scottish cream and mulled apple through the winter markets.
Loch Fyne & Creel
Fish & seafood
I hot- and cold-smoke salmon and haddock over oak in a smokehouse I built myself.
Orchard & Jar
Preserves & chutneys
I make Seville marmalade and seasonal jellies with no pectin and no artificial anything.
Skerry Silversmith
Jewellery
I set Scottish beach glass and agate with a hammered finish that catches the light. Sized on the stall where I can.

I roast my own beans and serve them from a trailer roasted in Renfrew the week of the market. I can run all day on one gas bottle.

Waggy Hound Co
Pet treats & accessories
I make dog birthday cakes and pupcakes in Harris tweed and biothane.
Wee Emporium
Vintage & upcycled
I restore and sell mid-century glassware sized properly, because vintage sizing lies.
Whin Scotland
