"Thank you for the plans. We finished our barn in August...fits right in with the rest of our buildings!  We're using it as a goat barn with two run-in pens, and an interior ramp to allow the goats to look out the hayloft door.  The plans were very well drawn and easy to follow." - K.H., Poplar Grove, Illinois
