Hemp Animal Bedding: Benefits, Uses, & Why It's Better

If you’re looking for a cleaner, low-dust alternative to traditional animal bedding, hemp is quickly becoming a go-to choice for farms, coops, and small animal setups.

Hemp hurd animal bedding, made from the core of the industrial hemp plant, is naturally absorbent, low dust, and biodegradable, helping create drier, healthier environments for animals.

Regeneratively grown on our family’s 5th-generation farm, our hemp bedding is crafted to deliver safe, high-quality bedding for horses, chickens, and every animal in between.

Odor Control That Lasts

Hemp bedding's absorbency helps to naturally reduce odors from excess moisture and ammonia buildup. Resulting in fresher environments and less cleanouts.

Longer Lasting Bedding

Because hemp bedding absorbs more and breaks down more slowly, it tends to last longer than traditional materials. Meaning fewer replacements and less time spent cleaning.

Additional usages: sustainable building materials, biofuels, packaging, industrial applications, bioplastics, filtration material.

"I love this stuff! It keeps it dry, it’s easy to clean, it’s soft on their feet and my chickens like it too. The price is worth it because it “evens” out because of its longevity. It really keeps the dust down, which is a big deal!"
Joanna D.
"Only the best for my ladies! I switched to Green Fox’s Hemp Hurd animal bedding and I'm never going to switch back! It's ultra absorbent and eliminates odor in the coop for months."

"My biggest problem with shavings is the dust. And when I dumped out Green Fox's Hemp there was literally no dust. It's super easy to clean and sift, and is way more absorbent than wood shavings."
