An afternoon for the whole family in the garden at Hen Corner… You will be welcomed with homemade 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.
What to expect:
  • Learn about the needs of the chickens, and their daily, weekly, and monthly care.
  • You will have the opportunity to handle a hen.
  • Questions over tea and cake.
  • Each family goes home with course notes, a certificate, and a goodie bag!
If you ever decide to buy anything from Omlet, you can benefit from a 6% discount if you contact me via their Ambassador Programme.
Whilst there will be treats and crafts for the children, our time together will give a good introduction to keeping chickens in an urban garden.

Whether it’s welcoming guests to our courses or working with schools, Hen Corner is bringing together the country and the city, helping you turn your urban corner green.
Over recent years Sara Ward and her family have transformed their Victorian terrace house into an urban smallholding allowing them to have the best of both worlds. Nestled in West London, they are living the good life complete with 20 hens, three colonies of honey bees and a fruitful kitchen garden.
Whilst Sara and the family continue to expand their hands-on skills, they train and encourage others through their schools programme, writing, and series of courses that are run from Hen Corner throughout the year. Be it preserving, cheese making, bee keeping or bread baking, there’s always something new that we can learn.
