We take our responsibility towards wildlife and conservation to heart, which is why we work with Farm Wildlife. Farm Wildlife is an umbrella of 11 separate wildlife charities and conservation organisations that have dedicated themselves to wildlife-friendly farming.
We have mixtures designed to cater to specific farmland birds dietary needs, especially during autumn and winter when food sources can become scarcer. Our CSS10/TS Wild Bird Mixture is especially useful for Tree Sparrows from October onwards. Other mixtures, like our CSS10/FCB, provide a nutrient-rich option specifically catered to Finches and Corn Bunting.
Most of our mixtures are sown in spring for a one-year mixture, but our CSS10/GP mixture, which is especially nutritious for Grey Partridges, is available in one and two-year mixtures. These mixtures don’t just help benefit wild birds either as during the summer, when flowering, insects can use the flowers as a food source.
You can check out our full Countryside Stewardship range, including Nectar Flower Mixtures and Beetle Banks. All of the products in this range are designed to support our wildlife and encourage biodiversity - from supporting wildlife habitat restoration to minimising water pollution caused by agriculture.
We also have wildflower seeds which can help encourage biodiversity in smaller greenery projects.
