OUR STORY & PHILOSOPHY

So, what do we stand for? Well, I would like to think:
Innovation Through Design
We invented and patented the, awfully described, 'cage within a cage' bird feeder design. This simple, yet effective, solution allows birds and not grey squirrels from passing through the bars and taking the food. Furthermore, all round access allows birds to feed in safety and exit freely.
Quality You Can Trust
Every feeder is handmade from strong, organically coated, steel and designed to withstand the harsh British climate! With a 10-year guarantee, they’re built to last - and to reduce landfill waste.
Practical Design with Style
Rooted in architectural design, our feeders combine clean, contemporary form with thoughtful functionality. Available in fresh tones like celadon green and aubergine, they’re easy to clean, simple to fill, and offer generous capacity - making them as practical as they are good-looking.

Contact
The Nuttery was founded in 1990 by my late father, Leslie Lipton. Dad, an architectural designer, was inspired by a BBC programme called Daylight Robbery, which was basically about squirrels effortlessly overcoming obstacles to get to food. This sparked his mission: design a bird feeder that would allow birds to feed in safety while deterring squirrels from denying them that privilege!
