About us

Chris and Monica reside in beautiful Northern Michigan with their sons Ryder and Marshall.

Welcome to Herd Heavy Nutrition, where our founder Monica's life-long passion for equine care transforms into every product we offer. As a farrier, biologist, devoted mother, and the heart behind a horse transportation company, Monica brings a multifaceted perspective to equine nutrition. Her experience in breeding fjords, along with her love for a diverse family of misfit horses and donkeys, has fueled her dedication to perfecting the right formulas.

We're also proud to have Co-founder Chris, whose ingenious methodology has been pivotal in developing our revolutionary sand treatment disks. His talent for innovation extends beyond the realm of nutrition; as the owner of a thriving excavating business, Chris brings a wealth of practical knowledge and problem-solving skills to our team.



At Herd Heavy Nutrition, we understand that the best care for your horses should come with ease. Years of meticulous research and hands-on experience have culminated in our line of nutritional products that stand out for their quality and user-friendly approach. Monica's journey, driven by a commitment to the health and happiness of her own equine companions, ensures that every offering from Herd Heavy Nutrition is crafted with love, science, and the well-being of your horses at its core.
