Welcome to our Bee Hotels & Bird Boxes, designed to help encourage Nature into your garden & allow you to enjoy watching them and be part of the garden scene!

Bee Hotels

There are over 260 species of solitary bees in the UK, they are the unsung heros of pollination! They don't take back pollen to  a big nest like bumblebees or honeybees, so they don't collect pollen on the fur on their legs like they do... which means each flower they go to they brush off much more pollen... they are incredibly efficient at pollinating. This makes them Natures and a gardener's friend... 

A number of them absolutely love the spaces we have created in bee hotels... they mimic dead stalks in the garden... all the areas often lost by tidying of habitat.

Pop the bee hotel in a sunny spot preferably South facing, I would opt for somewhere you can watch it as it's a delight to see them go in and out of the canes and wood... and fill them with either mud caps or little circles of green leaf! They lay eggs in these spaces & also hibernate here.. 

Birds Boxes

We can make these to suit whichever bird you'd like to attract, but the hole in this listing is predominantly for blue tits.

We have put a lock on the front, so that predatory birds cannot gain access, but you can to clean out at the end of the season

Built to Last

We build all our Bee hotels and Bird boxes out of reclaimed North American Pine, they are very sturdy and last well. 

Made in Suffolk

All of our items are handmade by carpenter's in Suffolk. It's a family business. 

Order Options

You can choose either the Bee hotel and Bird box matching set, or just a bee hotel or bird box at the checkout :)

Also known as Black Knapweed or Hardheads. A common and familiar plant with thistle like flower heads but spineless leaves and stem. The flower heads, which are in bloom from June to September, are purple or occasionally white and exist in two forms, rayed (top picture on the left) and un-rayed (second picture down).

Behind the flower is a hard head of overlapping bracts which sits upon the slightly swollen end of the stem. Greater knapweed, which is always rayed, can look a little like the rayed form of Common knapweed but can be told apart by the following features. In Common knapweed the bracts that make up the ‘hard head’ are pale brown with black/brown bristly edges. However the degree of overlap obscures most of the pale brown. In Greater knapweed these bracts are grey-green with black/brown bristly edges but, because there is less overlapping, much of the bract is still visible. In Common knapweed the leaves of the upper stem are lanceolate and in Greater knapweed they are toothed.

Welcome to our Hessian Pots

Created by Nature, Vince and Sarah in our Suffolk studios

This pot is perfect for a Christmas present or as a cover pot for a Christmas tree... particularly the small ones 

"Understandably, hessian pots are quite a new idea for people So I've compiled some reasons why they're so eco and people friendly :

1) A natural product that is fully degradable so wont pollute even when its outlived its usefulness

2) for larger items like trees and large veg plants you can plant the pot to avoid disturbing the roots

3) for herbs with invasive roots it keeps them in check.

4) the pots are really pretty

5) less polymer beads slopping around our oceans from degrading plastic

6) Nature likes them

7) Bees hang off the sides to rest...

8) Create you own little eco system on your patio; in your garden; on your allotment.

9) They make superbly pretty cover pots for herbs on windowsill; put a plate and pot inside them

10) add to allotments as pollinator friendly/ bee mix to encourage pollination of fruit and veg you only need to stand direct on soil and will rot through in time; part of the 'no-dig' revolution... don't break your back.

Make life easy.

Hessian pots are defo the way forward !"

Other uses

Why not try me as a toy tidier, a household pot

Many people at markets have brought these pots for this very purpose, they're also great as crafting tidy-upers and we use them all the time to carry around thread and scissors to and from workshops.

They also look great as a hamper at Christmas time, pop a beer bottle or two in the smallest hessian pot and wrap up

What's in the mix?

SPECIAL CORNFIELD MIXTURE

Composition

contains a wide range of annuals including some which are now rare or declining in the wild. No two cornfield annual sowings result in the same balance of flowers, with different soils and sowing dates having a great influence on the outcome.

Wild Flowers

% Latin name Common name

50 Agrostemma githago Corncockle

5 Anthemis austriaca Corn Chamomile

20 Centaurea cyanus Cornflower

15 Glebionis segetum - (Chrysanthemum segetum) Corn Marigold

10 Papaver rhoeas Common Poppy

Sowing Rates

kg/ha kg/acre g/m2

20 8 2

Ground preparation

Cultivate the soil to create a weed free seed bed with a medium to fine firm tilth.

Sowing

If the cornfield annuals are being sown alone then sow in the autumn, winter or early spring. A later sowing will shift flowering beyond the normal peak in June. If sowing as a nurse for a meadow mixture then combine the two mixtures and sow in the autumn, winter or early spring.

Aftercare

Cornfield annuals sown alone should be allowed to grow and flower and then in late summer the area  can be cut, cleared and cultivated. An annual cultivation is essential for re-establishment from self sown seed. (more on the management of cornfield annuals)

If sown as a nurse for a meadow mixture, cut and remove the vegetation in mid-summer, but do not cultivate.

Cornfield annuals will suppress annual weed growth and give shelter to the under-sown perennial meadow species but will compromise the main sowing if left uncut for too long. Cut the annual cover vegetation if it is lush and collapses and do not wait until the annuals have set seed (there is no point as they cannot grow in established grassland).

After cutting, manage the area as an established meadow, allowing the meadow species to replace the cornfield annuals in year two and thereafter.

Native Bulbs

Why buy Native? 

We source these bulbs from a specialist local supplier, and we chose only native bulbs grown on a small scale, because it's better for the bees and wildlife

They will always chose to pollinate a native plant over a hybrid or non-native which aren't best suited to their particular adaptations

Indeed, this is why some bees and butterflies have become extinct, becasue they can no longer find the right type of Native flowers to drink from

Arguably, these Spring bulbs are the most important of all year, as it's when the Queen Bumblebees come out of hibernation, looking for  a much needed drink of nectar to keep her going to find a nest. 

Even our beloved daffodils are not well suited to many bees anymore, as they have little Nectar left to support them, having been over hybridised, it will be a real joy to grow these special Native daffs. 

Do your bit and support wildlife, whilst enjoying the incredible beauty these pots will give you !

You can also stand existing pots within the hessian, to dress them and keep the heat off. We'd recommend you put an old plate underneath. 

Our bulbs...

Bluebell (Hyacinthoides non-scripta)
 Wild Daffodil (Narcissus pseudonarcissus lobularis) 
 Welsh Daffodil (Narcissus pseudonarcissus obvallaris)
 Snowdrops (Galanthus nivalis) ***
 Snakeshead Fritillaries (Fritillaria meleagris)
Wood Anemones (Anemone nemorosa)

Our hessian pots...

They feature off cuts of our dress making fabric, making these pots a delightful addition to your garden, patio, allotment, roof terrace, even in the dead of Winter.. bringing a pop of colour, in harmony with nature (hessian is made from the Jute plant, and bees love to rest on it) and an alternative to plastic 

And a promise of the joy to come when the bees visit in Spring

Welcome to our Hessian Pots

Created by Nature, Vince and Sarah in our Suffolk studios

"Understandably, hessian pots are quite a new idea for people So I've compiled some reasons why they're so eco and people friendly :

1) A natural product that is fully degradable so wont pollute even when its outlived its usefulness

2) for larger items like trees and large veg plants you can plant the pot to avoid disturbing the roots

3) for herbs with invasive roots it keeps them in check.

4) the pots are really pretty

5) less polymer beads slopping around our oceans from degrading plastic

6) Nature likes them

7) Bees hang off the sides to rest...

8) Create you own little eco system on your patio; in your garden; on your allotment.

9) They make superbly pretty cover pots for herbs on windowsill; put a plate and pot inside them

10) add to allotments as pollinator friendly/ bee mix to encourage pollination of fruit and veg you only need to stand direct on soil and will rot through in time; part of the 'no-dig' revolution... don't break your back.

Make life easy.

Hessian pots are defo the way forward !"

Welcome to our Bee Hotels & Bird Boxes, designed to help encourage Nature into your garden & allow you to enjoy watching them and be part of the garden scene!

Bee Hotels

There are over 260 species of solitary bees in the UK, they are the unsung heros of pollination! They don't take back pollen to  a big nest like bumblebees or honeybees, so they don't collect pollen on the fur on their legs like they do... which means each flower they go to they brush off much more pollen... they are incredibly efficient at pollinating. This makes them Natures and a gardener's friend... 

A number of them absolutely love the spaces we have created in bee hotels... they mimic dead stalks in the garden... all the areas often lost by tidying of habitat.

Pop the bee hotel in a sunny spot preferably South facing, I would opt for somewhere you can watch it as it's a delight to see them go in and out of the canes and wood... and fill them with either mud caps or little circles of green leaf! They lay eggs in these spaces & also hibernate here.. 

Birds Boxes

We can make these to suit whichever bird you'd like to attract, but the hole in this listing is predominantly for blue tits.

We have put a lock on the front, so that predatory birds cannot gain access, but you can to clean out at the end of the season

Built to Last

We build all our Bee hotels and Bird boxes out of reclaimed North American Pine, they are very sturdy and last well. 

Made in Suffolk

All of our items are handmade by carpenter's in Suffolk. It's a family business.
