Customer Reviews
And this is just what the people are saying, imagine if birds could talk.
Wallis Johns is, as far as we know, the first and only certified peanut-free wild birdseed brand, created especially for households, schools, and community spaces navigating peanut allergies, and for anyone who wants to feed the birds, worry and peanut free.
And it’s not just peanut-free birdseed, it’s really, really great birdseed.
But don't take our word for it.
Is Wallis Johns birdseed really safe for households with peanut allergies?
"As a mom of a child with a severe nut allergy, I am grateful that I can purchase birdseed that is free of nuts."
"My son has severe anaphylactic peanut allergies, so feeding our backyard birds was out of the question until I found this birdseed. Plus, the birds love it and it attracts all types of birds including Cardinals, Blue Jays, Red Bellied Woodpeckers, Eastern Bluebirds, Carolina Chickadees, wrens, finches."
"I have 2 grandchildren with peanut allergies. Being a lifelong birdwatcher, I needed to make huge changes in my feeders for their sakes. This bird seed mix now lets me share my birdwatching love with my 'littles'. A safe, peanut free feeder that still makes the birds go crazy with joy."
"Great blend for New England. Dogs in our house constantly track in and clean up feeder spillage. If you have someone with a peanut allergy, that is problematic."
"This gives her a safe option, and we don't have to worry about her playing in the yard!"
"Makes the birds happy and eases our minds!"

Will Wallis Johns birdseed actually attract more birds to my feeder?
"No worries for nut allergies! And birds LOVE this seed — I had double the amount of birds at my feeder than store-bought brands!"
"Within a couple of hours of putting this out the birds came in flocks. Blue jays, cardinals, finches, so many more that I can't identify."
"I have birds showing up that I have never seen before!"
"Cardinals, Blue Jays, Finches, Chickadees, Sparrows... they devour it!"
"It seems to attract a wider variety of birds than many other mixes. There is a peanut allergy in the family, so this is a welcome addition indeed. The birds say 'Thank you' as well."
"FINALLY birdseed that San Diego songbirds don't dump out of the feeder! I've tried many different blends without success until now."
"We and all the neighbourhood birdies LOVE this seed. Cardinals, Blue Jays, Finches, Chickadees, Sparrows... they devour it!"
You can learn more about why premium, filler-free birdseed matters and attracts more birds here.
Is premium birdseed worth the cost? Is it actually better value than cheaper blends?
"There is no price tag on peace of mind."
"No waste is the most important decision for me in buying bird food. A wide variety of bird species love this food and there is no waste aside from the sunflower shells which easily break down."
"The birds love this mix. I like there wasn't a bunch of filler."
"It's actually a decent value, considering the high quality of the product. By eliminating grain and nuts, you cut off interest from vermin and creatures that I really don't want hanging around my yard."
"Anything that's spilled gets eaten on the ground so there's almost no mess."
"Expensive, but the birds love it and safe for our home. A great product!"
"I need a job now to afford this high-priced quality product." 😄

Can I use Wallis Johns birdseed in a school, daycare, or peanut-free classroom?
"Bird feeding for all — Used the seed for a classroom project with sunflower butter. This is a peanut free classroom and everyone could participate. Coated pinecones and rolled them in seeds. Birds loved them!"
"We have several kiddos in our neighborhood with nut allergies so finally finding an option that they do not have to worry about has been great. The birds love it!"
"My daughter has a peanut allergy and most bird seeds include some peanuts so I was so glad to find this product. The birds really enjoy this food. So it is a win-win."
"Love this birdseed since it is safe for my grandson."

Can I share the joy of feeding birds with my kids safely?
"This bird seed mix now lets me share my birdwatching love with my 'littles'. A safe, peanut free feeder that still makes the birds go crazy with joy. And the 'Littles' can feed them and be around the area safely."
"My daughter loves feeding the birds, but with her peanut allergy we have had to keep her safe. This gives her a safe option."
"Thrilled that my son with anaphylactic peanut allergy can now feed the birds. A far cry from tuppence a bag, though. Oh well, there is no price tag on peace of mind."
"My daughter has a peanut allergy and most bird seeds include some peanuts so I was so glad to find this product. The birds really enjoy this food. So it is a win-win. Great product I would highly recommend for families who have children with peanut allergies."

The birds love the seeds, I love that my peanut-allergic daughter can still be in the yard while we feed our feathered friends, and the customer service is top notch.
My birds are happy their favorite brand is back.
We are so grateful for this product! We love birds but have a peanut allergy in our family. All our birds love this seed too- we have regular finches, sparrows, doves, juncos, and sometimes cardinals with this seed.
Love this birdseed since it is safe for my grandson.
This seed is loved by the birds here in Upstate New York! It seems to attract a wider variety of birds than many other mixes as well. There is a peanut allergy in the family, so this is a welcome addition indeed. It's nice to see that this market is being addressed. The birds say "Thank you" as well.
Great product as advertised.
Always grateful that a product was made for people with peanut allergies! My birds love it and we all can enjoy the birds without the worry of bird seed with peanuts. Thank you!!
All my backyard birds love this mix!
House finches have been coming every day! And they love it and I am safe from peanuts! Thank you for making these!
This seed is great and we don't have to worry about our son, who has peanut and tree nut allergies, coming into contact with it in our yard. Carie is the best and from here on, we'll only be buying directly from Wallis Johns.
We and all the neighbourhood birdies LOVE this seed.
Cardinals, Blue Jays, Finches, Chickadees, Sparrows... they devour it!
Equally great is the fact it's a Canadian-made product with minimal plastic packaging. It's a win-win-win!
I searched everywhere for birdseed NOT in a plastic bag, until I found company. Not only is the bag composable, but the order arrived the next day. Great service and a great product. Oh and the birds love it, too.😊
I do not dislike any of this product, the birds absolutely love this stuff, I bought a bag of this to see how the birds would react, the nuthatches really like it, I have had more of them here than I have ever had.Koodos to the company who supplies this .I will be ordering more.
If birds could talk, here are a few of them that love our seed and may have something to say.
-
American Goldfinch
These beautiful, acrobatic little songsters will brighten your yard any time of year, and they often bring (lots) of their friends with them. They tend to come and go for no obvious reason, but keep your feeders full, they'll be back.
-
House Finch
Once the cheerful house finches discover your feeder, they're likely to bring a flock of friends with them next time. They have a delightful twittering song.
-
Chickadee
Dear, sweet chickadee, how we love you so. There is nothing not to love about this reliably cheerful, friendly and inquisitive little bird. They'll make you grin with their swooping flight patterns and joyful chirps and squeaks.
-
Northern Cardinal (male)
He's a shy, loyal fella. First you'll hear him - a glorious sound you'll afterwards never want to be without - then when you spot him, you'll know you've just been graced by something special.
-
Northern Cardinal (female)
She's a beauty, spectacularly so. She and her mate (for life) prefer eating off the ground under the safety of a large tree, but they'll also venture to platform and tube feeders.
-
Indigo Bunting (male)
What a treat if you spot this stunning, brilliant blue bird passing through your yard (during migration months). They'll sing for you from dusk till dawn.
-
Evening Grosbeak (male)
They're not likely to visit your feeders every year, but they're worth the wait and they tend to travel in large flocks, so when you do see them it's a pretty stunning sight to behold.
-
Rose-breasted Grosbeak (female)
It's most likely that you'll only see her during migration months, but the songs her and her mate sing to each other as they take turns incubating their nest is the sweetest of outdoor operas.
-
Rose-breasted Grosbeak (male)
Even if you only see him when he's passing through during migration, it's worth it. Early twentieth-century naturalists reportedly said that their song is, “so entrancingly beautiful that words cannot describe it”.
-
White-breasted nuthatch
We dare you to hear their song and not grin. They're a bit bigger than the red-breasted nuthatches, but just as energetic, quirky and delightful. You'll often see them at your feeders alongside chickadees and titmice (cuteness overload when that happens).
-
Red-breasted Nuthatch
These tiny, quirky and friendly little birds are a joy to watch as they scurry down a tree trunk - top to bottom. They're quick, but seeing them at your feeder is a delight. It's not uncommon for them to eat seed right out of your hand.
-
Downy Woodpecker
These adorable little acrobats (they're only a bit bigger then a nuthatch) often join flocks of chickadees and nuthatches. It's pure delight when you see all three of them at your feeder.
-
Song Sparrow
This is the most familiar of the North American sparrows, their song filling a backyard will take you back to those care-free days as a kid playing in the backyard, and its accompanying soundtrack.
-
American Tree Sparrow
These little cuties and their sweet song are regulars at feeders all winter long. Despite their name, they prefer to forage on the ground (and on seed heads in the winter) but also happily visit hopper and tube feeders.
-
House Sparrow
These little songsters can overwhelm, but, we think, you just need to learn how to live with them, the reliable sounds and sight of them are worth it. Leaving seed heads on plants (especially native ones) should help keep the balance, and seed in your feeders.
-
Pine Siskin
Is it a sparrow? A finch? A ? If a shimmer of yellow catches your eye and you're trying to figure out what you're looking at, it might just be a Pine Siskin. They're elusive little birds, there one month (or year) and not the next, enjoy them when you can
-
Mourning Dove
We can't imagine being without the soothing, comforting sounds of these peaceful birds. They seem to reassure that everything will be ok, that it all works out in the end. No matter the day or the troubles, their song remains the same, thankfully.
-
Dark-eyed Junco
These elegant little snow birds tend to make their first appearance close to the first snow fall. The beautiful silver and dark grey streaks they make as they fly about are a welcome and peaceful sight.
-
Tufted Titmouse
These absolutely adorable wee birds are regulars at backyard bird feeders, especially in the winter.
-
Blue Jay
The thing about having a peanut free yard is that it's a little less attractive to these handsome, but a little bossy, birds. Not so unattractive that one or two won't grace you with their beauty, but unattractive enough that they don't overstay their welcome.
