The Story of Henny Penny
One day, as Henny Penny pecked at corn beneath a tall oak, an acorn fell and struck her on the head.
Startled, she cried, “The sky is falling!” and ran to tell the king.
Along the way, her friends joined her in panic, swept up by fear rather than fact.
The fable’s lesson is timeless — a reminder to stay calm in uncertain moments, to think before we rush,
and to face life’s surprises with courage and clarity.
At The Henny Penny Catering Company, we embrace that wisdom. Life will always drop a few acorns our way, but we meet them with creativity, resilience, and care — turning challenges into opportunities to nourish and connect.
We strive to craft every dish, every gathering, and every experience with that same grounded grace.
Because no matter what falls from the sky — we’ll never be a Henny Penny.
