Made with UK WoodAll our natural wood products are handmade from materials sourced from sustainably-managed woodlands in the UK; supporting local crafts people, woodland viability and biodiversity. These products are made from untreated wood and they will crack and change over time. This is a natural process which does not affect the use of the product and can encourage a child's investigation of the natural world.
Wood contains a natural preservative called tannin which aids its longevity. Tannin is soluble and can leach out of wood when it gets wet. Once the water evaporates, it can leave tannin sediment behind, causing staining. We recommend that you do not store your wood on a porous surface as it may cause discolouration.

Additional Information
Bring character and nature-inspired learning into your outdoor space with this delightful set of four rustic Animal Planters. Hand-carved and hand-painted to represent a fox, hedgehog, mouse and badger, these unique wooden planters provide an engaging way to introduce gardening, wildlife and outdoor exploration. Perfect for filling with herbs, flowers or seasonal planting projects, they create a playful focal point while encouraging children to interact with natural materials and outdoor environments.
Ideal for early years settings, Forest School programmes, nurseries, school gardens, outdoor classrooms and home gardens, these wildlife-themed planters support hands-on learning through planting, sensory exploration and discussions around habitats and nature. Young gardeners can care for plants, observe seasonal changes and develop practical gardening skills in a way that feels fun and meaningful.
Made in the UK from sustainable UK-grown wood and individually hand painted, each planter celebrates the beauty and character of natural materials. Timber naturally changes over time, meaning knots, splits, movement and small changes in the bark may develop as the wood responds to outdoor conditions. These features are part of the individuality of the product and can help spark curiosity and strengthen children's connection with nature. As untreated timber naturally contains tannins, occasional leaching and surface marking can occur in wet conditions, so we recommend avoiding long-term storage on porous surfaces.
