Farris is a natural mineral water, created under a mountain called "Bøkkerfjellet" near a small Norwegian town called Larvik.
Changes in the earths ground after the last iceage (6000-9000 years ago), created conditions for Farris which is tapped today. The water which is tapped from Olav V's spring is a combination of water created several thousand years ago and regular rainwater from "Bøkeskogen" wich lies on a hill near Larvik.
A farrier is a specialist in horse and ox hoof care especially shoeing.
Effectively the farrier couples a subset of the flsmith's skills with a subset of veterinary medicine to primarily address the care of a horse's hooves, feet and legs.
Historically in the United States farrier and flsmith have been all but synonymous and traditionally includes smithy or flsmith work.
Farriers, the men and women who lovingly create those shoes, keep alive traditions that have transcended history and have found a valued place in the modern equine world.
Farriers may travel around the world to shows exhibitions, festivals, and schools to sell their work, conduct seminars, and for research, to learn about new techniques and ancient metal working traditions.
Prospective farriers may want to look for courses in history in order to understand the historical context of the flsmith, and their crucial role in European and settler societies of the past.
