Hen House Market

About Hen House Market

Besides carrying a selection of conventional groceries, Hen House Market actively supports the Buy Fresh/Buy Local campaign, which focuses on bringing the best of products grown and produced by local family farms in and around the Kansas City Metropolitan Area. In addition to naturally raised meats and dairy products, the Buy Fresh/Buy Local campaign also features free-range eggs, local honey, freshly baked breads and jams made from native, wild fruit. All Buy Fresh/Buy Local items are clearly marked to distinguish them from the conventional items.

This focus is important to the partnership and the customers of Hen House Market for the following reasons:

Fresher foods - grown close to Kansas City and therefore have spent far less time in a warehouse or being transported across the globe

Tastes Better - grown under the watchful eye of local family farmers whose livelihood depends upon the product and its quality. The food has superior taste and in many cases superior nutritional value

Supports the Local Community - because these farmers and producers live in the local community their economic success benefits our area economy and stabilizes the erosion of small family farms by large corporations. Their money stays in the community and helps it prosper.

Grown in the United States - each of these products are good old fashioned food grown in the United States of America.

Items vary with the seasons, but an updated list of items can always be found on Hen House's website.
