Maryland Farriers Association

Who we are 

 The MFA is local chapter number 8 of the American Farriers Association. It was started by central Maryland farriers with the idea of promoting unity and continuing education within the farrier community serving Maryland and surrounding states.

What We Do

The MFA provides an organized educational "gathering point" for hoofcare professionals who want to be the very best at what they do. 

This "gathering point" is made tangible with association sponsored certifications, clinics, contests, "hammer ins" and picnics.

Often the association activities are informally organized via sub groups within the MFA. For example: area or discipline specific farriers will gather to share knowledge, practice forgework, or relay experience based obsevations.

These activities build relationships and help farriers perform in practcal application on a daily basis.

Contact an MFA Member

 The MFA is not in the business of referring farriers but we do provide a list of farriers that are members in good standing.

Our Membership is made up of quailfied people who make farriery thier livelyhood.

We urge you to ask potential farriers about thier experience level, discipilne specific shoeing experiences and if they can provide references via customers, trainers, Veterinarians and or other qualified farriers.

Please see our MFA listing page for the full list.
