Restoring Our Barn, We Need Your Help!

Alright, so we have this old barn on our property, and it is probably close to being a hundred year old barn. It is in need of repair. Here is a link to where you can donate. But, we also need your help getting the word out about this. So, if you could place on your blog the link above, and this following message, that would be so helpful!


The message:




Hi, we have a very old barn in need of restoring and repair. It is beautiful and I love it, and still being used for our cows. This barn is most likely one hundred years old, and we need donations, lots of them. The goal is twelve thousand dollars, we have no date as to when we need all the money, but as it comes in we will be repairing the barn.
It needs a new roof, some new paint, the base supports, which are stacked stones, are in need of reinforcement due to flooding. And other things like windows and doors need to be fixed as well.
The barn is still in use as cows are kept there and the "shop" an extension adding somewhere between 1930-1960, is used for keep and using and storing tools and other things. The "shop" (Short for Work Shop) was added on as a milking parlor. Things need to be fixed before this old barn, a historic piece, is lost and destroyed. Please, if you can, donate to fix it. ~Abbie R,



That message as with the link and maybe something about this project that you want to say, can be posted on your blog, any social media, or message boards! :}
