Birdhouses
All birdhouses are made with weather-resistant softwood (red and aromatic cedar, douglas fir). The exterior is finished with a mixture of mineral oil & natural waxes. The inside is left untreated. Each birdhouse has vents for air circulation and one side opens for easy clean-out. The size of the birdhouse makes it suitable for bluebirds, wrens, and chickadees. The wood will age beautifully to different shades of gray. Hangers are provided on the back.

Bee Hotels provide shelter for solitary bees, lacewings and other insects for nesting and hibernating. Bee Hotels are a very useful tool for gardeners, because the non-aggressive solitary bees help to pollinate flowers, fruits, and vegetables. They will often nest in the same area year after year. All bee hotel boxes are made with weather-resistant red cedar. The exterior is finished with a mixture of mineral oil and natural waxes. Hangers are provided on the back. The wood will age over time.
Measurements: vary (the "regular" height is between 10"-16", but can be 8"-36")
