Harbour & Jones Scoop Good Egg Award

On 14th May 2009 at the House of Commons, Harbour & Jones scooped a ‘Compassion in Farming Good Egg Award’.  The award was presented to Harbour & Jones for their commitment to only using free-range eggs.

Penelope Keith, one of Britain’s best-loved actresses and patron of Compassion in World Farming presented the award to Patrick Harbour of Harbour & Jones. She said: “A cage-free egg cost just a couple of pennies more and it saves hens a life of misery.” Other celebrities also supporting the 2009 awards include Twiggy Lawson, Jo Brand, David Suchet and Paul O’Grady. 

Patrick Harbour, co-founder of Harbour & Jones, said on winning the award:  “We’re delighted to have won such a prominent and highly respected international award, we take ethical food and animal welfare issues very seriously.  We hope this award will encourage other operators and consumers to ditch battery cage eggs.”

Harbour & Jones, the highly respected boutique caterers, supply restaurant and hospitality services to some of London’s most prestigious venues including The Royal Society, Channel Five, RADA and, most recently, St Paul’s Cathedral.  Harbour & Jones provide imaginative food backed up with a clear set of values that includes a policy of ethical sourcing, sustainability and seasonality.  With a real passion for British baking their traditional tea time treats including scones, rock cakes and Victoria sandwich cakes, all use free range eggs, direct from the farmhouse of a Harbour & Jones team member.
