Great service from Garden Crowd. Delivery and confirmation took slightly longer than I’d have liked but that’s because they’re a small business doing a great job. Always love supporting small business... See more
I wanted a plastic-free provider and found Garden Crowd. I’ve honestly never seen so many birds around our feeder. I’ve had to buy some new caged feeders to stop the bigger birds guzzling it all down... See more

Food was good although I’d have preferred it to be sent in paper bags rather than plastic even though they were recyclable

Hi Sharon, thanks for your review. The bags are not plastic, we are 100% plastic free. They are plant based cellulose bags - much better than paper for the environment. You can compost them, recycle them and even put them in a food waste bin. No plastic from us! Thanks GM
Plastic free and fantastic quality
Wow! This food is brilliant, as soon as I opened the packet I knew it was better than the other food I've used, as it isn't "dusty" like cheaper food. It's also great to know Garden Crowd help urban birds and don't use plastic in their packaging.

I ordered a make your own bird feeder kit from Garden Crowd, for my granddaughter.
It arrived quickly and was just what we needed for rainy weekend!
It was easy to assemble and we also bought fledgling food.
She loved making it and filling it up, thanks Garden Crowd am now a regular.

I bought suet pellets
I bought suet pellets - first order. A bit more expensive than other brands but bought because there was no plastic on the packaging. A hand written note was a thoughtful touch and I’ll definitely buy from them again.

Thanks for your review. Glad that you like the bird food and the packaging. We are really happy to be the only bird food that does it all plastic free. Thanks for your support and custom :)
Absolutely the best quality bird food…
Absolutely the best quality bird food out there!! I tend to buy many of my straights (peanuts, sunflower hearts, etc) in bulk because I feed a LOT of birds, but I occasionally treat myself (and my birds) to one of their gourmet mixes. They're so worth the money!! I buy my suet pellets from them regularly, they are filler-free and so good for the birds! I occasionally have shipping issues (but it's my address, this happens with all kinds of companies) and they're always quick to respond and super helpful. Love Garden Crowd!

Thanks for your lovely comments Clare. Glad that you and your birds enjoy our company!
I am so glad I discovered Garden Crowd
I am so glad I discovered Garden Crowd, I have literally doubled the amount of birds I get in my garden and not only that I have birds that I have never seen before, it's opened up a whole new hobby for me and my husband who get really excited to see all the cute little fluffy birds and they can't get enough of the food I am putting out for them. I work from home so my camera is permanently on ready to capture the best shots. So happy with the quality of the product and the birds clearly love it! :-)
