Hey farm gals, it’s Kara from Lange Girl Farms! November’s bare trees call for feeding wild birds—naturally with pinecone feeders. My chickens cluck at the visitors, my horses graze as I craft, and my huskies watch the flocks. This holistic DIY’s simple and sustainable—15 years of winter wildlife love perfected it. Here’s how to feed birds, farm girl style!
Ingredients You’ll Need
- Pinecones, peanut butter (peanut butter)
- Birdseed (birdseed), (twine).
- (Butter knife) for spreading.
Step 1: Gather Pinecones
Collect dry cones—(basket) holds ‘em. My ducks nibbled wet ones; 15 years taught me dry picks.
Step 2: Spread Peanut Butter
Coat cones—(butter knife) works. My husky pup licked a cone; years taught me quick spreads.
Step 3: Roll in Seed
Dip in (birdseed)—cover well. My chickens pecked loose seed; 15 years showed me thick layers stick.
Step 4: Tie and Hang
Loop (twine), hang high. My minis sniffed low ones; years taught me tall branches.
Step 5: Watch and Enjoy
Birds flock—my homestead sings. My huskies watch; it’s winter wildlife joy.

These pinecone feeders are my November gift to nature—15 years of homestead crafts keep birds happy. Make ‘em; your trees’ll come alive! Pin this for your winter DIY, and follow Lange Girl Farms for more crafts.
