As I get older, I’ve become more focused on leaving the world a better place than I found it. A large part of that is using & consuming environmentally conscious products and allowing that to overflow into the lives of our animals.
A Growing Trend
Natural horse care options are gaining in popularity, as they should because horses are natural too. Feeding GM-free is as important as using products that don’t pollute your (& your animal’s) surroundings.
While it’s not always an easy lifestyle, it is an infinitely rewarding one & your animals deserve your vigilance. Read the ingredients on everything you use!
Keeping It Real
There are a number of resources online (& off) for those who want to learn how to ensure that their animal remain as natural & green as they can be. Some offer print copies, some offer online subscription & some offer both…I say stick with the online subscription – paper mags aren’t very environmentally friendly and they cost more.
Equine Wellness Magazinee This is a large wellness magazine developed by Redstone Media Group who runs several wellness mags. They offer online & print subscriptions as well as a variety of online resources for non-subscribers.
Holistic Horse Magazine was started by equine professionals with the intention of educating the public about more natural & holistic options for horse care & nutrition. They offer a variety of tips, expert opinions & product reviews to non-subscription holders as well.
Natural Horse Magazine is a family owned, private company and developed by their personal experience with an ailing animal. A holistic treatment approach was so beneficial to their animal they decided to share what they’d discovered with the world.
Natural Horse Planet Magazine is a magazine that boldly states “It’s time to put the horse before the rider!” and they offer editions in both English & French in the hopes of teaching people to do just that. Unfortunately this one looks like it’s a print only quarterly mag.
Natural Horsemanship Magazine provides practical info to horse owners & lovers with a strong focus on a natural methods & products. They’ve been providing said advice for 10 years and offer both online & print versions.
The Short List
This list isn’t very long & I’m quite sure I haven’t found them all. If you know of or write a natural horse magazine (online or off) I hope you’ll leave it in the comments below so I can add it. Also be sure to check out the green horse guide for some quick ideas & tips.
This one is very good – it’s both a forum site and a print magazine from Australia ~ Natural Horse World:
