πΏ Woodland Layers Browse Mix
πΏ Woodland Layers Browse Mix
Approx 50G - 3 cups
Hazel Leaf • Willow Leaf • Herb Robert • Carrot Scatter
Digestion • Anti-Inflammatory • Appetite • Relaxation • Enrichment
A naturally varied woodland-style forage combining two different tree browse leaves with wild Herb Robert, finished with just a tiny scattering of dried carrot for colour, texture and extra interest.
Woodland Layers takes inspiration from the different levels of plants animals might encounter around woodland edges — leafy hazel and willow above, smaller wild plants growing underneath, and plenty of different shapes, scents and textures to investigate.
Hazel provides the main fibrous browse, while willow adds another softer, aromatic leaf. Herb Robert brings a completely different finely divided texture and distinctive natural scent, creating more variety than a simple two-leaf blend.
Finally, the mix is topped with just 3% dried carrot. It is there as a colourful finishing scatter rather than a bulk ingredient, keeping 97% of the blend made from proper leafy botanical forage.

π³ The Spirit of the Mix
Woodlands aren't made from one plant.
There are broad leaves overhead, softer growth underneath, wild plants weaving between them and different scents and textures everywhere you look.
Woodland Layers Browse Mix brings a little of that variety into feeding time.
π Hazel for sturdy browse
πΏ Willow for softer leafy variety
πΈ Herb Robert for wild woodland interest
π₯ A tiny carrot scatter just because it looks bloody lovely
97% leaves. 3% decoration. 100% there for a reason.
