The Sun Never Sets on the MHA!

We are fortunate to have members from all over North America and beyond who are eager to share their building knowledge with others.

We are a diverse group of builders, scientists, hobbyists and volunteers who strive to educate everyone about the efficiency and wonder of wood-fired appliances. While a good number of our members are professional masons interested in expanding their skills, MHA membership isn’t limited to professional masons. We also include amateurs and hobbyists - folks who are keen to learn  about becoming more self-sufficient.  For the professionals, we offer Certification, continuing education and advice to strengthen their small businesses; these craftspeople design and build masonry heaters and wood-fired ovens throughout North America. For the amateurs, we offer workshops, training and advice on their wood-fired projects.
