Black Sunflower Seeds

Thin-skinned, tasty and packed with oil and protein, black sunflower seeds are a real, year-round alternative to peanuts at a significantly lower cost. They're easy to feed, too, either on the ground or from any type of feeder. The only drawback is the discarded husks, but even these have a benefit - they make great compost!

Storage

We would always recommend your food is stored in an air tight container in a cool and dry location to ensure that it remains fresh up until the best before date.

*Please note that our 25kg sacks of black sunflower hearts are delivered as 2x 12.55kg sacks, meaning you get more seed for your money. Plus they're much easier to handle, store and will remain fresher for longer.
