Bird Seed Sale To Benefit Boxerwood



 By late fall, birds migrating through Rockbridge and birds that spend the winter in our woods and mountains have a hard time finding food. Insects are no longer active, and nature’s own supply of seeds and berries is scarce. With winter on the way, birds are looking for another reliable source of food to give them the energy to stay warm. This is when they most need us to put out feeders and keep them filled. 

To help residents stock up on quality bird seed, the Rockbridge Bird Club is holding a seed sale. What’s more, the Club is donating the proceeds to Boxerwood to help us create more bird-friendly habitat. 

The sale begins October 9. Prepaid orders must be received by November 15 and will be available for pick-up at Boxerwood on Saturday and Sunday, December 7-8 from noon to 4 p.m. 

The seed sale will offer a variety of higher-quality products from BFG Supply in Harrisonburg, including black-oil sunflower seeds, thistle (nyjer), sunflower kernels, and gourmet mixes. Feeders that dispense various types of seed are also included in the sale. (Hint: A bird feeder and a sack of seed make a meaningful holiday gift!)
