About this event

Pickles, Chutneys, Jellies and more!

Stroll around our London kitchen garden picking the best of the bounty, then off to the conservatory to prep & preserve…

Sara Ward will welcome you to Hen Corner with fresh coffee and home made treats. After an introduction to our time together you will have opportunity to stroll around the garden visiting the chickens and bees, then off to the conservatory and kitchen to get busy for the day…

A simple home-made lunch whilst the pans are bubbling then pack the preserves into jars and label to enjoy another day.

We are pleased to bring you this London preserving course.

Recipes for the day may include:

  • Apple & Chilli Jelly - Great Taste Award 2023
  • New Season Piccalilli - Great Taste Award 2022
  • Garden Chutney
  • and others (depending on harvest)

Everyone goes home with recipe sheets and a jar of each preserve that they’ve made.

'What a brilliant day! I was inspired not just to turn my hand to pickling but to one day live the kind of lifestyle that Sara does; bees, chickens, garden, fruit trees - bring it on!' Emma Bunce, Sustain: the alliance for better food and farming

‘Since moving into her West London home a few years ago, Sara Ward and her husband Andy have industriously set up Hen Corner, where they now have a stunning kitchen garden – with raised beds full of seasonal crops – fruit and nut trees, a flock of clucking hens and a beehive with busy bees hard at work making honey.’ Michele Jameson, Country Living Magazine

We are Hen Corner.

We love the bee keepers, the veggie bed diggers, the jam makers and cider drinkers, the chicken fanciers and the real bread bakers.

But not just in the deepest darkest countryside or the far, far away villages but right here in our cities and towns.

So, come on a course and join us on the journey…
