Our Story

 

Bon Cheval CBD was founded on the belief that every horse is a good horse—and that every horse deserves to feel and perform their best. Our products are the result of years of research, experience, and a deep understanding of both horses and science.

Co-founders Melissa Ashcraft and Nicole Miller, with the support of Tres Bien CBD, combined their unique passions to create a line of equine wellness products that horse owners can trust.

Melissa is a Grand Prix Dressage rider who spent her early career traveling the world, performing with the legendary World Famous Lipizzaner Stallions. Today, she owns and operates Transitions Equestrian Center in Northwest Indiana, where she is head trainer, mentor, and an inspiration to riders of all levels.

Nicole’s love for horses began at just two years old with the gift of her very first pony. Growing up as a 4-H member and lifelong horse enthusiast, she never lost that childhood passion. With a professional background in biology and pharmacy, Nicole brings the science behind Bon Cheval to life—merging her knowledge with Melissa’s equestrian expertise to create effective, safe, and natural CBD products.

Together, Melissa and Nicole built Bon Cheval CBD not just as a brand, but as a mission: to support horses in feeling their best, strengthening the bond between horse and rider, and helping every horse thrive naturally.
