WITH FRANCINE RAYMOND & HUGH BURTON

Spend a day with us here at the Kitchen Garden, near Bury St Edmunds and learn all there is to know about keeping hens: with hands-on advice, practical tips and a fabulous slide show. Meet our famous flock of Orpingtons and see them in action, plus on-site hints on how to garden despite your hens. Sit round the kitchen table to discover tempting recipes and for all those delicious eggs. Includes a visit from breeder Hugh Burton and his award-winning Silkie hen. All topped off with a home-grown lunch, a glass of wine and an afternoon chat with a question and answer session with assembled experts. Take home a goody bag full of useful information, after sharing an enjoyable day with a small group of like-minded henkeepers.
