‘Myself, my husband and my daughter attended Sara’s Chicken course in March and I’m so glad we did…This was a complete family affair with Sara’s husband and 2 kids being fully involved, informative and friendly to everyone who attended. My husband and I were able to ask all the questions we had and get hands on with the Chickens and Eglu, whilst the kids had an Easter egg hunt and painted egg money boxes!’ 5 Stars Fantastic! – Grace
An afternoon in the garden at Hen Corner… You will be welcomed with a warm drink and introduced to the joys of keeping chickens! We’ve been keeping chickens, here in London, since 2007 and currently have big hens in an Eglu Cube and an Eglu Go and six bantams in an Eglu Classic.
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. We will look at the needs of the chickens, and their daily, weekly and monthly care. You will have the opportunity to handle a hen, ask questions and each family goes home with course notes, a certificate and a goodie bag!
- Please wrap up warm and wear suitable clothes and footwear for the garden.
- In adverse weather we will move the course into the conservatory.

Hello, I was interested in joining with my kids on the 1st but we can’t leave Putney until 1:30 and I’m not sure where you are located and if we could make it by 2?
Many thanks,
Sarah

Hi Sarah,
We’d love you to join us!
Brentford is only 15mins on the train from Putney, I’m sure you’ll be fine…
We start with drinks, so it doesn’t matter of you’re a few minutes late.
Hope to see you soon,
Sara
