ANNAPOLIS, MD (August 2, 2022)– The Maryland Horse Industry Board (MHIB) will begin accepting grant applications for the 2023 grant year. The goals of the grant program are to promote the Maryland equine industry by increasing public awareness and participation, advancing education and training, supporting and promoting equestrian events, programs, and activities, and preserving access and use of public lands for riding. The deadline to apply is October 7, 2022.
"The horse industry is a valued part of Maryland's strong agricultural economy," said Agriculture Secretary Joe Bartenfelder. "These grants provide opportunity and growth for this important sector, which provides $2.1 billion to the state's economy and it does so by using funding generated from within that sector. I thank the Maryland Horse Industry Board for this grant opportunity and for its dedication to the promotion of equestrian and equine activities."
