What's a Good Barn Layout?
by Shivani

We have finally bought a homestead and will be moving there this spring. Lots to learn and do.
I love this website. Just discovered it yesterday.
Amish cut red pines on our land there and they are drying now as timber for a
barn. I need to know more about how to lay out the barn in terms of pens,
doors, windows, etc. Can anyone suggest resources for that? (No horses. 1-4
cattle at any given time. Chickens. A few sheep. Probably feeder pigs in
summer. 10 acres total. One large field we will alley crop with hazel nut
trees, not yet planted.)
Thanks,
