Sweet Feeders at Fourth & Forrest

Welcome to the workshop behind the grey-blue house where Sweet Feeders are designed and manufactured. We are passionate about family and business.

Sweet Feeders at Fourth & Forrest - the place where hummingbird feeders are handcrafted, two brothers and their wives join forces to create art and wonderful experiences for their customers, and family and business are combined. On any given day you'll see Ryan and Caleb, two brothers, working on hummingbird feeders (or playing pranks on each other....). Caleb has owned and managed numerous busine

sses; his first at the age of sixteen. Ryan is a recent college graduate and is excited to begin his adventure in the world of entrepreneurship. Their wives, Caitlynn and Lindsey, love to photograph products and write on the blog - all while drinking coffee and talking up a storm (and keeping a careful eye on those two ornery brothers who get into more trouble than kids). Caitlynn is the office manager for a local private school, as well as the web content manager for a counseling ministry. Lindsey home schools Caleb's and her daughters and manages web content at a birth center from home. Combining the two is something we've always wanted to accomplish. The love of entrepreneurship runs deeply through the veins of the Caleb and Ryan, passed down from their father. Now that passion is being given to the two little girls running around the yard. By purchasing a unique handcrafted hummingbird feeder you are joining our family. Find us on Facebook, Instagram and our blog to see the everyday life of two families who are taking the American dream and creating more than just a business. Our goal is to build a legacy worth passing down to our children; the concept that our community of family and friends is more important than anything else.

Starting them young! 😍 One of the joys of a family business is watching your kids get excited about entrepreneurship. We love watching the second generation of the Sweet Feeders family learn and grow 😊

The two oldest ones have always had side businesses of their own going, in one way or another, and the youngest one is showing promising signs ;)

We dusted off a favorite older design for the State Fair- the Texas Feeder! It's definitely a favorite - our first design to sell out this year! Ryan and Caleb had to go back to the shop and crank out another 100 to take back to the booth - so you still have a chance to get one for yourself! We are not currently selling these online, so if you needed another reason to come to the ...there you go! :)

FAQ of the week: "How do I shine my feeder after it patinas?"

Answer: Since your feeder is made of 100% pure copper, it will oxidize over time, acquiring a patina. This does NOT compromise the integrity of the feeder in any way – it is merely an outer layer of mild rust.

You can use generic metal polish intended for soft metals like copper (Brasso, for example). Additionally, here is a safe, all-natural and easy way to shine your feeder:

Mix 1 c white vinegar with 1 TBSP table salt in a glass cup or bowl; stir until salt dissolves.

Pour vinegar solution into a clean, empty spray bottle (preferably glass).

Take the bottles out of the feeder that needs to be clean; remove any flowers, as well. Take the feeder and spray bottle outside, and spray the feeder thoroughly over a concrete or rock surface that can be easily rinsed. Watch your feeder magically regain its shine!

Last and VERY important step: rinse the feeder immediately and thoroughly in cool, running water. Hang to dry.

*works best with feeders that have gained a patina over several months, vs. a year or more*

Happy Anniversary to our founding couple, Caleb and Lindsey! 🎊 Sweet Feeders started with these two and their little girls traveling to craft shows around Texas, and has continued to grow as a thriving family business. We love this hardworking, fun-loving, business-savvy team a whole lot 😊

Are you having trouble with bees or wasps drinking from your feeder? To fix this problem, simply:

1) Fill your bottle about three-fourths of the way full and cap it

2) Insert it into your feeder

3) Tilt the bottle upward until the nectar touches the base of the red tip.

Keeping the nectar away from the hole in the tip prevents the bee or wasp from being able to reach it while still allowing your little hummers to drink :)

This Modern Three Station Window Feeder is one of our most popular feeders! The perch by the lowest bottle is a big part of what makes this feeder a customer - and hummingbird - favorite! Just imagine sitting by your window and watching your hummer friend rest a few feet away from you!

Goodness, aren’t hummingbirds just amazing?! This little emerald beauty still stuns us with his incredible detail.

Although hummingbirds are know for their almost frenetic flight patterns, did you know they also like to sit sometimes while they eat? This makes our perch feeders pretty popular with them! The feeder in the picture is available in our shop* - check out the link in our bio!

*Just a reminder - right now we have to use bottle tips that look a little different from the ones pictured, but still the same idea!
