Solway Smokehouse

John Firth has run the small Solway Smokehouse on Galrinnes Farm for 15 years, and he still oak smokes his products in the traditional way. Salmon is haaf-netted on the Solway firth, and he also smokes trout, chicken, game, cheddar and Stilon, as well as making smoked salmon paté. He visits many of the farmers' markets in the region: on the 1st Saturday of the month find him at Gatehouse of Fleet; 2nd Saturday at Dalry; 1st Sunday at Dumfries, and throughout the year at Moffat Producers' Market. You can also buy online and from the farm - there's no official shop, so call before visiting to make sure someone can meet you.
