WBU History

Jim Carpenter opened the first Wild Birds Unlimited store in 1981. His mission was to share his joy of bird feeding with everyone who visited his Indiana store. The first franchise was purchased in 1983. Today there are over 300 Wild Birds Unlimited stories in the U.S. and Canada. The Wild Birds Unlimited of the Tri-Cities store is one of the newest to join the franchise family.
