Barn Raising

There is so much to catch up on the doings at Green Pastures Farm . . . goats, eggs, landscaping, gardening . . .  but that will just have to come in bits and pieces, here and there.  Pete tells me the brothers want to see pictures of the barn progress, so that will be the subject of this post.

A barn raising describes a collective action of a community in which a barn is built or rebuilt.
Well, that's what we've been doing . . .

A large amount of preparation is done before the  barn raising. Lumber and hardware are laid in (check), plans are made (check), tradesmen are hired (check) and ground is cleared . . .
