HorseHage

HorseHage is semi-wilted grass sealed in the bag but without the dust and spores found in hay. HorseHage is made from only the best quality grasses.

It is cut just like hay but, instead of being allowed to dry completely, it is baled when the grass has wilted and the dry matter content has reached around 55%. This takes about 24 hours in good drying weather. The bales are then compressed to half their original size, packed and heat-sealed into double skinned plastic bags. No artificial preservatives are added, just natural fermentation inside the bag preserves the grass as HorseHage.
