Vivara is Europe’s market leader in wildlife care

When you buy selected products from us, you’re helping to support vital conservation efforts that protect natural landscapes and wildlife.

A contribution from these purchases goes towards initiatives focused on preserving habitats, supporting biodiversity and caring for the wild spaces that birds and other wildlife depend on.

So every feeder, nest box or bag of bird food doesn’t just support the birds in your garden, it also helps protect nature on a much larger scale.

We want you to be completely happy with your purchase. If something isn’t quite right, you can return your product within the return period for a refund or exchange.

Simply contact our customer service team and we’ll guide you through the process.

Our goal is simple: make returns easy, fair and hassle-free, so you can shop with confidence.

Yes. The wood used in our products comes from FSC®-certified sources.

The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC®) certification ensures that forests are managed in a way that protects biodiversity, wildlife habitats and local communities.

By choosing sustainably sourced wood, we make sure that supporting birds and wildlife in your garden also helps protect forests and ecosystems for the future.

We’re continuously working to reduce our environmental footprint and packaging is a big part of that.

Wherever possible, we are reducing plastic, switching to recyclable materials and optimising packaging sizes to minimise waste. We’re also exploring innovative packaging solutions that protect products while using fewer resources.

Our goal is simple: less unnecessary packaging, more focus on nature.

Yes. Many of our bird food products are developed and produced in-house.

This allows us to carefully control ingredient quality, nutritional value and sustainability. Our mixes are designed by wildlife experts and specifically formulated for the needs of wild birds and other garden wildlife, providing the energy, protein and nutrients they need throughout the year.

Producing in-house also means we can maintain high standards while constantly improving our recipes.

Vivara is part of the CJ Wildlife family. While Vivara is our consumer brand, CJ Wildlife is our research and development powerhouse. All our bird food and habitats are developed by the expert ornithologists and biologists at CJ Wildlife to ensure they meet the highest nutritional and safety standards for garden wildlife.

Most of our CJ Birdfood products are manufactured in our own dedicated farm and production facilities in Europe (including the UK, Germany and the Netherlands). This "in-house" approach allows us to have total control over the sourcing of seeds and the quality of the final product, from the field to your feeder.

Yes, safety is our top priority. All Birdfood ingredients, especially peanuts, undergo rigorous laboratory testing for Aflatoxins (mould toxins that are fatal to birds). We also ensure our seed mixes are cleaned to remove dust and debris, which can cause respiratory issues in small birds.

Yes, we offer many of our most popular Vivara Birdfood mixes and seeds in bulk sizes (up to 20kg). Buying in bulk is not only more cost-effective for you but also more sustainable, as it reduces the amount of packaging material used per kilogram of food.
