Duncraft Feeders Create A Peaceful Haven In Your Backyard

By Chloe Gib


When Gil Dunn began his adventure in 1952, into what would become a phenomenal backyard hobby, it was a no frills, basic lesson in humanity. Just like the early basics of black & white TV, classic sitcoms of family life with a message, ruled the airwaves. Environmentally savvy, yet simply basic, Duncraft feeders began a family legacy of caring for our feathered friends.

With an interest and an idea, Gil Dunn changed the world. His primitive wood tray fostered the direction of his life's work in Duncraft feeders. His craft led to his future and the creation of his successful legacy in an environmentally conscious business that provides for wildlife enthusiasts. Upon his death, his son, Michael and daughter, Sharon Dunn have spent their lives carrying on the proud tradition and expansive growth of creating products to enhance the environment and habitats for birdwatching.

Fifty years of history have brought state-of-the-art to creative, species-specific structures for birds. Safety is the #1 priority for both the birds and the environment. Products are researched, engineered and built in their New Hampshire locale. Each product is subjected to field testing to insure the highest standards for safety, reliability and durability. Today there has been an explosion in the popularity of creating humane habitats that sustain families of bird species and the joy of birding.

Like the American family pastime of watching television, watching the birds offers comedy, sitcoms of the trials and tribulations of courting and raising a family and life and death dramas playing daily just outside the window. By design, in choosing the type of food and feeder, you are in charge of the remote in your garden habitat.

Cardinals have a preference for platform dining with sunflower seeds on their plate, bluebirds love mealworms, orioles are drawn via fruit and jelly while finches prefer tube feeders full of nyjer. You are the director of the cast of players you choose to watch by customizing your backyard stage with the draw of species-specific dining.

Fielding birding questions and supplying accurate information is of primary importance at Duncraft, with customer service their passion. Eco-friendly housing, fresh, premiere foods and the knowledge garnered from years of experience, they have earned their reputation of trustee for your backyard wildlife.

Duncraft feeders and food create the sanctuary for the myriad feathered flocks in your own backyard. Woodpeckers, cardinals and hummingbirds have different requirements for perching, hanging or ground feeding. Birdbaths with the sound of movement attracts birds. Shelters and bushes protect new families from harm and provide the secure ambiance called home.
