The Barn!


  

The barn is 36' x 48' with an 8' overhang on both 48' sides. The interior is divided into 4 - 12' x 12' stalls each with it's own dutch entry door, and also 2 - 12' x 8' stalls. The center aisle is 12' wide with a door at each end for easy drive through. The bunnies have all been relocated to a 12' x 32' room built as the rabbitry. My goats will be spoiled with lots of light from a 10' skylight over each stall.

Another great time saver added to the farm is the addition of our Cushman Hawk! Basically a big golf cart with a tilt bed on the back. Makes those stall cleanings SO much easier!

We use this daily, don't know how on earth we ever did without it!

 

The barn soon after construction.


Here are some pics of the site as it was being constructed.

The very beginning! Lots of big equipment and lots of dirt being moved while clearing the site!

Thanks to Gary's dad & some terrific neighbors we have the site all ready for the next phase by the end of the weekend. :)


01/13/07 We just had more fill for the barn brought in so that the barn will be higher than the surrounding ground for drainage.

 90 tons of dirt/gravel to spread!

 


02/13/07 New photos! Finally some building goin' on!

The crew set the poles and the trusses are standing by. The day got cut short due to the snow but it's a start! The exterior just might be mostly done by the weekend! We have the barn heat/ac units all ready and waiting to install. And the lumber, insulation, drywall and water line for my bunny room is standing by so we can get moving on the inside as soon as the outside is finished.


 02/15/07 Going up quick!!
