The hedgewitch team
Lucy creates the plant magic inside our products. She is an equine pharmacognosy practitioner and trained with Caroline Ingraham at the Ingraham Academy of Zoopharmacognosy and is always happy to give holistic advice.
Mike runs the show and just makes everything happen! He has the unenviable job of making most of the products and escapes when he can with his four-legged partner in crime, TG.
Our horses are our inspiration!
Hedgewitch was born out of the frustration that horse products often don't have transparent labelling - we feel everyone should know what they're putting on their horse.
And frequently horsecare products don't live up to expectations. We challenged ourselves to do better.
We want you to be confident in the ingredients you're applying to your horse while being sure our formulations have been thoroughly tested and work as amazingly as they smell...
(P.S. I wish I'd swept the yard but hey, we're busy people!)
Light bulb moment!
In my work as an equine pharmacognosy practitioner, I was already enabling horses to self-medicate using essential oils, whole plant oils, and herbs.
What if I could use that knowledge to create products that work by using the oils horses often select for themselves? Imagine how many more horses would benefit from these amazing oils...
AND HEDGEWITCH WAS BORN!
guided by horses
plant magic inside
For the past eight years, we've carefully sourced high-quality plant oils that horses often select themselves for certain conditions.
Our hedgewitch applies the findings of peer-reviewed research, where available, to help refine our formulations.
We work with nature to create products that really do work. And most importantly, horses love them!.
