I’ve always loved barns. Whether they contain hay, livestock or equipment, they’re filled with possibility. Back in middle school I spent endless study hall periods in the library, poring over Eric Sloan’s An Age of Barns just to look at the different regional forms, specialized outbuildings, and general whats-its of rural life (that and watching film loops of mating frogs and the San Francisco Earthquake.) So we were quite pleased to find a barn here at Willow Greens Farm.
What a wonderful barn. At about 40 years old, it looks great. The paint color is a nice match for the metal roof and, wow, the windows look amazing! I can't wait to see how you use the space - the potting shed and woodshop will be perfect there. It looks like a very peaceful place.
Chapeau, from one barn lover to another. I am loving your Willow Greens Farm journal so much.
Thanks! Still a long way to go, but it’s a start.

It’s amazing how well things age when there is a good roof.
