Meet the makers
Bonnie Dog Deli
Pet treats & accessories
I make dog birthday cakes and pupcakes with no grain, no filler and no nonsense.
Bothy & Wick
Candles & home fragrance
I pour soy candles in reusable glassware scented with essential oils, never synthetics. Sniff before you buy — the stall is set up for it.
Clay Kiln Co
Ceramics
I hand-build slab vessels with ash glazes I mix from my own wood burner.
Clyde Barista Co
Hot drinks
I do hot chocolate with proper Scottish cream and mulled apple through the winter markets. I can run all day on one gas bottle.
Corrie Candles
Candles & home fragrance
I make candles in salvaged whisky bottles scented with essential oils, never synthetics. Sniff before you buy — the stall is set up for it.
Corrie Dairy
Cheese & dairy
I make raw-milk cheese on my family’s farm from a herd of forty Ayrshires just outside Kilmarnock. Cheese boards made up to order while you shop.
Glen Market Garden
Fruit & veg
I grow chillies, garlic and unusual brassicas under polytunnels I put up myself.
Heather Larder
Bakery & cakes
I bake Scottish oven scones, empire biscuits and tablet-topped brownies fresh the morning of the market, never the night before. The empire biscuits go first, every single time.
Press Press
Art & prints
I make screen prints of Glasgow buildings and print them on heavy cotton paper. Cards keep the lights on; prints pay for the paper.
Skerry Atelier
Jewellery
I hand-forge everyday pieces in silver and brass with a hammered finish that catches the light.
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 Croft
Fruit & veg
I grow chillies, garlic and unusual brassicas under polytunnels I put up myself. Veg boxes made up on the day.
