Willow & Meadow Blend
Digestive • Anti-Inflammatory • Skin and Coat • Enrichment
A naturally structured forage blend built around willow, hazel, and cow parsley, designed to support digestion, gentle anti-inflammatory function, and natural chewing behaviour.
This mix focuses on whole-plant variety and texture, encouraging natural foraging while supporting internal balance. Finished with a light floral topper to enhance both function and visual appeal without overpowering the base.
Formulated for rotational feeding, not as a sole forage source.
