Hi, I'm Jayce, the blacksmith behind Farmstead Forge. I am a farrier by trade; I learned the basics of blacksmithing at shoeing school and the rest I learned on my own. I'm excited to expand my knowledge and continue learning while also sharing my passion with others.

Join me in the shop on my Montana farmstead where I enjoy building tools and other fun projects that we can use around the place.
