A summer’s evening in the kitchen garden…

You will be welcomed with home made refreshments and introduced to the joys of keeping chickens!

We’ve been keeping hens, pure breeds, hybrids and bantams, here in London, since 2007 and currently have Pure Breed hens in an Eglu Cube (mark 1), Hybrid hens in the new Eglu Cube and Bantams in an Eglu Classic...

We are pleased to bring you this London chicken keeping course.

Our time together will include:

  • Equipment required for keeping chickens
  • Different breeds available
  • The needs of the chickens, and their daily, weekly and monthly care.
  • The opportunity to handle a hen
  • Questions over tea and cake
  • Each guest goes home with course notes and a goodie bag

‘Just spent a lovely and informative evening with Sara learning how to look after chickens in my London garden. It was great to get some hands on experience of handling hens and the food and drink provided was very welcome too. I am looking forward to having the fresh eggs in the goody bag for breakfast tomorrow’ Caroline TripAdvisor

Ten Top Tips for Keeping Chicks

Organised 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…
