I visited Ryan Harris-Hayes, a farrier and proud member of the indigenous Maori people, last year on New Zealand’s North Island. In this podcast we discuss Ryan’s lifetime of working closely with horses and how he has forged his own path in farriery, as well as rural life in NZ, horseback hunting and gathering, shepherding, Maori heritage, and much more.
