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.

It can only go one of two ways, but at least they won’t sting the children in the garden (they had settled on a swing) or move into an air vent or chimney pot (and cost thousands to remove!). Good luck little bees 🐝 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🐝
