Sunflower Hearts

A high-energy favourite for a wide variety of garden birds

Sunflower Hearts are one of the most popular foods you can offer wild birds. With the shells already removed, they're easy to eat, create less mess beneath your feeders, and provide a rich source of energy that birds can enjoy all year round.

Whether you're feeding through a seed feeder, on a bird table or in a ground feeding tray, sunflower hearts are a fantastic choice for attracting a colourful mix of garden visitors.

Why we like it

If we had to recommend just one food for attracting a wide range of garden birds, sunflower hearts would be high on the list. They're packed with natural oils and energy, making them especially valuable during colder months, the breeding season and when young birds are learning to feed. Because there's no husk to discard, they're also one of the tidiest options for keeping your garden looking its best.
