Chickens
We have been keeping happy chickens at Russells for the last 11 years, they have complete freedom to roam the whole garden centre helping us to keep the nasty bugs at bay and providing eggs for our restaurant.
Each spring brings a new clutch of baby chicks.
We are highly recomended by the battery hen welfare trust and they have awarded us an eggsellence award for using only free range eggs in our restaurant, we feature on their website www.bhwt.org.uk where you will find abundant information on why you should only buy eggs laid by free range chickens and free a hen from her cage today!
We now have 4 new additions to our chicken family - beautiful pekin bantams from Foxhollow animal rescue centre.
New bantam chicks
we have 4 new pekin bantam chicks from Foxhollow animal rescue centre, they were hatched at the beginning of April and will soon be free to roam around the gardens with our other chickens

"KEEP SUNDAY SPECIAL is something we also do. We have a small family run business also in Wittering and do not open on Sundays. Well done for not doing something that most small business are forced into doing at the loss of valuable family time."

"We love coming to Russells all year round but at Christmas time its something else! Simply magical and sure to inject us with that special festive feeling. The food is outstanding - how such simple food can be made to taste so delicious is beyond us. Well done to you all."

"Your cakes are second to none locally and we enjoy the fresh sandwiches and chunky bread too! Our family loves to wander around the furniture and usually end up buying an item or two. Thank you for giving us locals somewhere to enjoy so much. The Jack Family"
