Ok all here’s the fun one now ---- Tack Shops!! Where should we go? We are visiting barns this weekend and would also love to SHOP! BTW - all of you are so helpful. Really psyched![/QUOTE]
In Frederick there is: Tractor Supply, Southern States, the Walmart on Rt 15 has a very teensy selection of horse things in the pet section
Not too far from Frederick: Stablemates in Mt Airy, HC Summers in Jefferson (feed and supplies, no tack), All About Equestrian in Poolesville, The Surrey in Darnestown
A little further out: Saddlery Liquidators/The Tack Box/Middleburg Tack Exchange all in Middleburg, VA, the other Saddlery Liquidators in in Haymarket (kind of a haul but is a LOT bigger)
Honestly, I think going to Middleburg would be the most fun for you. Just check their hours first.
