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.

I had the absolute pleasure of hiring Henny Penny Catering for my husband’s 50th birthday bash at the Fainting Couch Hotel, and she was just amazing! We had 38 guests to feed, and I really wanted the food to be something special, she totally exceeded my expectations! Christine was super flexible and incredibly accommodating when it came to dietary restrictions, which made everything so easy for me.
Now, let’s talk about the food. Oh my goodness! We had the Greek chicken dinner one night, and it was enough to feed an army, everyone couldn’t stop raving about how delicious it was. The next morning, she whipped up some shakshuka for breakfast that met our group’s high standards (we have some serious shakshuka enthusiasts in our group). It definitely did not disappoint!
And I can’t forget to mention my husband’s favorite dessert, tiramisu! He was absolutely blown away. She also whipped up three dozen cupcakes, and let me tell you, they were absolutely delicious!. Everything was generous, bursting with flavor, and clearly made with so much love. If you’re planning something special in Cobb, I highly recommend working with Henny Penny!!
