This is a news feed for things I find which have some interest or relevance to barns, rural history, and agriculture in Ontario. It may not be pretty, often I just add a link. I will also add the OBP social media posts here, as an extra feed. I'm Laura, the Admin. Asst. working with Ontario Barn Preservation. Hello, Welcome, and Season's Greetings (its always a season).

Links from Successful Farming Publication in the US
I may or may not come back to these. Right now they are taking up a lot of space in my web browser so I'm going to post the links here that I think could be useful. Of course, they are US based so not exactly the source I'm looking for.
