Izzit always fantasized about owning a pony growing up, although his parents forbid it. So, you can imagine how excited Izzit was to find these 5 eco horse products from Ecolicious Equestrian. Not only are these products 100% free of harmful chemicals, they’re packaged in biodegradable bottles made of recycled materials; protecting your equine friend and the environment in one easy step.

Ecolicious Equestrian’s whitening shampoo is an excellent alternative to traditional, non-organic brands. Brown, yellow, and green stains be gone!
