About this event

*TWO DAY COURSE*

(Ticket date is for the first of two consecutive days)

Due to popular request, this special course has been designed to help you master hard cheese and sourdough bread in ‘real time’. Over the TWO days, you will develop your artisan culinary skills as we separate curds and whey, press cheeses overnight, stretch and fold sourdough bread and so much more…

Sara Ward will welcome you to Hen Corner with fresh coffee and home made bakes. After an introduction to our time together we will start making our first cheese following the whole process from beginning to end. Whilst the milk ripens and sets, we will turn our hand to sourdough bread; the original craft. Other skills, techniques and recipes will be woven into our time together as will opportunity to stroll around the garden visiting the chickens and bees, and discover how we are choosing to live a more sustainable life.

This course is a natural follow on to Introduction To Making Cheese and Full Day Making Sourdough

Whilst the cheeses are straining and breads are proving, we will enjoy a simple lunch to fuel us for the tasks of the afternoon.

Organized by

‘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…
