EUP Wood Shavings

EUP Wood Shavings Michigan-made. Community-driven. Animal-approved. We produce 100% natural wood shavings from locally harvested UP logs and a zero-waste drying process. No gas.

No chemicals. Just safe, comfortable bedding for healthier animals. Here at Eastern Upper Peninsula Wood Shavings, or UP Shavings for short, we sell high-quality bagged softwood shavings. Made from spruce and balsam grown in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Our shavings are dried naturally with a forced air-dried biomass burner. We double-screen the dust out and burn it to create heat for the dryer, so

our product doesn't smell like chemicals—it just smells really good!

🌲 From Forest to Stall — This Is Where It Begins.

Most people see the bag.
Horse owners see the bedding.
But very few people see the story behind it.

This short video shows where our shavings truly begin — in the forests of the Upper Peninsula.

Every bag of EUP Wood Shavings starts with locally harvested spruce and balsam, carefully processed and double-screened to create clean, low-dust bedding trusted by barns, stables, and livestock owners.

🌲 Locally sourced
🐎 Trusted by horse owners
🌱 Natural and sustainable

This weekend we’re at the expo, and our shavings are being used for the bedding throughout the event — which is pretty exciting for our small UP company!

Take a minute to watch the video and see the journey for yourself.

👇 Then tell us in the comments:

What do YOU look for most in stall bedding?
Low dust? Absorbency? Smell? Comfort for your animals?

We’d love to hear what matters most in your barn.

🐎 Fill in the blank:

I wish more people knew ______ about horse bedding.

Our answer?

🐎 That horses have an incredible knack for messing up a freshly cleaned stall right after you’ve finished bedding it. 🤦‍♀️

Fresh shavings…
Perfectly fluffed…
And somehow, the horse targets the one spot you hoped they wouldn’t.

That’s why quality bedding matters — better absorption, less dust, and makes stall maintenance a breeze.

This weekend at the Michigan Horse Expo, horses throughout the event will be standing on EUP Wood Shavings 🌲

And yes… We’ll have a booth there too, so if you’re attending, come say hi!

👇 Now your turn 👇

🥶 When even the horse’s nose has frost on it… you know it’s cold.
We’re starting the morning at -10°F at 7:30am here in the U.P. ❄️🐴

Steam noses, frozen buckets, and animals giving you that look like, “You sure about this?”
This is what real winter looks like — and we’re built for it 💪❄️

How cold is it where you are today?
