Bird Food
Bird Food
All the foods we supply from Vine House Farm are high quality and can be considered energy-rich. However, this is not the case with all bird foods on the market and it's important to avoid cheap mixes which may appear good value, but generally contain 'fillers' such as pulses and even broken-up dog biscuit! This type of food has little nutritional benefit to garden birds, and may not be eaten anyway – instead just creating waste and potential disease as it rots down. So rule number one: only buy high quality bird food from a brand you can trust

Bird Feeders
Bird Feeders
It is not just the selection of food that is important in determining which species of bird you attract to your garden - it is also the type of feeder used. There are many different types of bird feeders, including those designed to hold peanuts or suet pellets, and seed or seed mixes. Others are available for the tiny niger seed, suet block holders, plus a whole range to keep squirrels and larger birds out, whilst still allowing small garden birds in to feed. There's also a range of ground feeders suitable for ground feeding birds which are suitable for foods like sunflower hearts, suet pellets and husk-free mixes.

Bird Care
Bird Care
Hygiene is essential with bird feeders and we have a range of products to help keep your feeders in clean and in good condition. Sadly, birds can catch diseases and fall victim due to feeders which are not kept clean. However, with the right bird feeder cleaning products the risks are minimised and your garden birds can feed safely and be kept healthy.
