Our Egg Club scheme encourages pet hen owners to sell their surplus eggs and donate the proceeds back to the BHWT, all of which is put towards our rehoming work think of it as hens helping hens.
So, if you've done all the baking, whisking, frying and scrambling you can think of and STILL have eggs left over, we'd love to hear from you.
You'll get a free Egg Club pack to get you started plus you can visit our Egg Club Hub for more resources and join our private Egg Club Facebook group for eggsclusive content.
