Wild Bird Feeding

It is vital for birds to have plenty of energy rich foods, because despite being extremely active, they carry little or no fat reserves.

Vine House Farm Bird Foods has used garden research to produce feeds which are ideal for nourishing wild birds. Cheap fillers used in many mixes have been eliminated to ensure optimum quality. The feeds we supply can be split in two categories:

SEED MIXES

Our seed mixes are an ideal quick and easy method of providing maximum nourishment from a single bag.

INDIVIDUAL FOODS

Once you have observed the species in your garden, you may wish to alter their feed according to their preferences. Individual seeds can either be chosen to produce your own mix, or used in addition to our standard mixes, for example by also feeding niger, sunflower hearts or raisins.

Of greatest importance is the basis of your feeding regime on black sunflower seed or hearts. Due to its nutritional composition it is fast replacing the peanut as the most versatile wild bird food.

Black sunflower seeds and sunflower hearts are preferred by more bird species than any other seed.
