The artisan bird nesters are our very first world fair trade organisation product! Purchasing our fair trade product helps both wildlife and people. In addition to giving a bird a nest, you’ll be supporting the artisan workers in southern Bangladesh who make them.

Funding the survival of many women and their families from rural communities in desperate poverty. Handmade to the highest quality finish using natural hogla grass and recycled saris. (hogla is a type of grass that abundantly grows in Bangladesh and is used as a material for baskets, cushions, and placemats.

Hogla grass regularly causes problems near the shores as it can overgrow whole harbours, rivers, and ponds. This material is considered a weed and the local villagers remove it.) Every nester is unique in colour!
