Bess the barn was built sturdy. Strong. Steadfast. She was there with her family, with her farm animals through birth, through death, and through all the celebrations and sadnesses in between.
But then the farm was sold to a young innovative farmer, and he built a shiny new barn for the animals.
A lovely story of the worth of old things, a The Little House for barns.
