Forage Bar with Mixed Vegetables
The Forage Bar with Mixed Vegetables combines high-fibre Sweet Green Hay with naturally vibrant beetroot, pumpkin, and sweet pepper to create a colourful, textured grazing treat that supports chewing, foraging, and gentle nutritional variety.
Made from traditionally grown Sweet Green Hay, field-dried and carefully finished in a moisture-controlled barn, this bar retains its rich green colour, scent, and fibre content. The added vegetables provide natural antioxidants and plant compounds while encouraging scent-based enrichment and interest.
Designed as a complementary treat, this bar supports dental wear, digestive fibre intake, and mental stimulation — without artificial colours, preservatives, or cheap fillers.
Break into segments, scatter into hay, or hand-feed to strengthen bonding and promote species-appropriate behaviours.
