Hennels and the Soil Artist

BBC Radio Wales - Country Focus, Hennels and the Soil Artist

Spa treatment for hens, and painting with nature's palette

A five-star hotel for your hens and chickens, and the artist painting with earth's natural colours.

Rebranding Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty to National Landscapes to reflect their natural beauty and important role in climate change, conservation and wellbeing.

We head to the rocky shores of Anglesey for our bird of the month. The purple sandpiper is a wader that likes our winters!

Are you away for Christmas?  Who's looking after the hens?  We hear from the Cosy Hen Co in Monmouthshire providing Hennels, or hotels for poultry!
 
And earthy paints - we meet an artist from Powys who has taken her love of the natural world and started a business making paint from soil
