Barn Style Homes
What is a barn style home?
Barn style houses, obviously, are reminiscent of barns. And how can you not fall in love with the idea of a barn? They’re spacious and roomy, yet practically scream cozy comfort with their rustic appeal. And the best part: you don’t need to live on a farm (or even have gardening skills) to enjoy life in a barn-style house.

Livestock Guardian Animals
A growing number of livestock producers are using guard animals to reduce predation on livestock. Llamas, donkeys, and dogs are animals most commonly used for this purpose. The best guard animals stay with the livestock without harming them and aggressively repel predators.
