This fall we plan to begin the full survey of tobacco barns in
The barn above has two diamond-shaped vents cut in the top planks and an abandoned VW Beetle guarded by cows |

Later stone foundation repair with donkey on guard behind trees |
Two tobacco barns in a field of new tobacco plants |
Caused by lightning? |

If you or anyone you know is interested in helping out with the survey, please contact us!

Beautiful! Especially the pic of the two barns. Brings back memories of my grandparents' country in piedmont NC, where the dirt is even redder.
Hi Jean,
Thank you for the comment. Let us know if you would like more information on our tobacco barns project.
Hey there Sonja, those were sure nice captures of barns, the tobacco barns just perfectly look different but beautiful, I've never seen one of that type before, and I was really hoping someday to see and visit one. That lightning effect to the tree real? Pretty scary!
