-
Unsoiled bedding is long lasting for 12 months or more (actually, much more with good stable management and ventilation!)

“Everything I want in a riding top has been combined into these base layers — buttery fabric, flattering profile, quick drying & UV protective. Easy to wash & affordable”
HERDD’s founder {with her creative streak} always wanted to design a textile. This floral fabric blossomed in our NZ cottage country garden; personally photographed, edited & curated to bring you a one-off, truly bespoke moody print.
Not just for riding! Whether it’s golf, tennis, fishing, walking, running, cycling… you’ll love being active in a HERDD base layer or tight

Soiled HERDD bedding makes awesome organic matter for your plants!
HERDD is mildly acidic (pH 4-6) organic matter which these ‘acid-loving’ plants thrive in. Even better, when HERDD has been ‘cooking’ away for months in your manure heap, it will be FULL of earth worms & rich organic soil for planting new plants or mulching around existing ones.
