About Hen Corner

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.

If only you could smell this! Uncapping some of th If only you could smell this! Uncapping some of the last frames of this year’s honey harvest in preparation for @nationalhoneyshow… As I pull the tool across, the aroma of a freshly opened bottle of beer is released - my girls must have been visiting next door’s hops 🌱🍻 Though hops are wind pollinated, the bees may have visited to drink rain drops off the flowers? There’s even some research that hops can protect the bees from the nasty varroa mite - so good news all round!

Hooray! Today is my First Swimversary ☀️🏊🏻‍♀️💦 This day last year was the first time I swam outside in London, it was in a lake on that occasion but I’ve since enjoyed rivers, docks and the sea. I’ve knocked up 90 open water swims over the year, as cool as 3.6c and as long as 5.5km. I’ve loved every swim, good for the mind, body & soul ☀️❄️🏊🏻‍♀️💦🦢🦢 #justkeepswimming

Pick a Piccalilli! I’m very proud to say that ne Pick a Piccalilli! I’m very proud to say that nearly all of the fruit and vegetables used in today’s preserving course were grown on the plot this year (and mainly harvested yesterday!). I’ve always enjoyed preserving produce when in season, but when it’s all been grown here in sunny Brentford - it’s so much more special! All will be available to buy along with bread from our Bakery soon… 🍏🍎🍋🥒🌶🥕🧄🧅
