Many of our common backyard birds love peanut butter. Hand-crafted from logs harvested from the Travis Audubon Society's Chaetura Canyon Bird Sanctuary in Central Texas, these feeders come with a recipe for "Mama C's Cardinal Cookie Dough" that is irresistible to a surprising variety of birds including chickadees, titmice, wrens, warblers, cardinals, jays and woodpeckers. Each feeder is approximately 12" in length and has a unique shape created by nature. $20.00

Mason Bee Bungalow
Orchard Mason Bees are excellent pollinators and several species occur naturally throughout the United States. In nature they nest in beetle galleries in wood. Unlike carpenter bees, Mason Bees are never destructive to homes or other wooden structures because they do not excavate nest holes themselves. But this means that nest holes may be in short supply. This bee house will encourage Mason Bees to take up residence in your flower or vegetable garden. It is the insect equivalent of a bird house.
9" tall Cedar with copper top: $20.00
