About the seller:
Fat Hen is a small, rural, family enterprise set up by forager and professional ecologist Caroline Davey, alongside the fantastic chefs, Matt Williamson and Claire Thomson. The venture is the realisation of a dream borne out of a passion for wildlife, the countryside, the Cornish landscape and food. Fat Hen aims to teach others the art of foraging for wild food, to demonstrate traditional and contemporary gourmet cooking techniques used to cook the foraged produce, and to feast in rustic style in the beautifully converted granite barn in West Cornwall. It also endeavors to get people out into the countryside, to engage people in being connected to and a part of the landscape, and to teach people about sustainable living and conservation. The Fat Hen additionally strives to empower people with the experience of freedom and independence in finding food resources, and to feel the emotional and physical health benefits of spending time in wild places.More activities by this seller:
