This month I’m writing about the fabulous Introduction to Ice Cream course that I did with the lovely Kitty Travers at the School of Artisan Food last year… Check out her recipe for Strawberry Semifreddo in our regular column, The Good Life in the City, in the latest issue of Country Living Magazine.
This month, April 2020, marks the 10th Anniversary of Hen Corner, our Urban Smallholding in West London! We had been gearing up for all kinds of wonderful celebrations and, sadly, it turned out that we couldn’t invite guests to join us for the big day over the Easter weekend.
We are now starting to approach the wonderful, but narrow, window of opportunity for making Elderflower Cordial. Find our recipe and top tips in our regular column, The Good Life in the City, in the latest issue of Country Living Magazine.
Whilst sad that we’ve had to postpone all our courses and events at the moment, we were delighted to discover that Chiswick Calendar are profiling both our 10th Anniversary and new online films and cooking sessions…
This week has seen a few firsts for me, the most unusual has been the amount of phone calls that I’ve received asking me if I am selling my chickens!
I’ve been making marmalade for many years now, every year that we’ve lived in the corner house (that’s been 12 years), and for a good few years before that. I remember the first time that I stocked up on Seville Oranges, I had great plans to boil up buckets of the stuff, unfortunately, I learnt some important lessons the hard way.
When Food Unfolded contacted us to talk about Raising Chickens in the City, we were more than happy to share our experience!
What an honour! In the very same month that we celebrate our Tenth Birthday, Prima Magazine have featured Hen Corner in a double page spread as part of a series called ‘Ladies who Launch’…
This April we not only throw our doors open for our popular event, Easter at Hen Corner, we are also celebrating our 10th Birthday! Find out more in our monthly column, The Good Life in The City in this month’s (well read) Country Living Magazine… Psst – it also includes our Hot Cross Bun recipe!
If you’ve ever been to Hen Corner, you will have met our lovely cat. He leaves such an impression that he is often highlighted in our Tripadvisor reviews!
