🌿 Garden Harvest Forage Mix
Appetite • Digestion • Daily Variety • Gentle Support
A balanced, garden-inspired forage blend combining familiar leafy greens with gentle botanicals to support appetite, digestion and natural grazing behaviour. Designed as a rotational or light daily forage, this mix is ideal for encouraging interest in food while keeping nutrition simple and recognisable.
Built around soft leaves and veg tops animals already know and enjoy, and finished with a small sprinkle of pea flakes for palatability, this blend is especially useful for fussy eaters, seasonal appetite dips, or pets who benefit from familiar textures and flavours.

🌿 Why These Ingredients Work
Strawberry Leaf

Carrot
Adds natural sweetness and encourages appetite, making the mix appealing without being treat-heavy.
Cabbage
Provides variety and natural plant compounds, supporting digestion when used in controlled, dried amounts.
Lettuce
Light and digestible, helping bulk out the mix while encouraging grazing behaviour.
Dead Nettle
Adds mineral support and gentle anti-inflammatory properties, balancing the vegetable components with a true botanical element.
Pea Flakes (sprinkle)
Included at a low level purely to boost interest and engagement, helping animals interact with the forage without turning it into a treat mix.
