Barn maintenance can be a daunting task if you let it get ahead of you! And as we all know, deferred maintenance, including insect damage, can lead to costly repairs. Join barn contractor Ian Blackman and UNH Extension’s Rachel Maccini to learn best practices and practical tips on old barn care. Blackman will provide advice on water management, structural issues and general maintenance concerns, and Maccini will offer tips on best approaches for keeping rodents, bats and wildlife out of your barn, as well as controlling bug infestations. This is a not-to-be-missed session for barn owners and stewards. And bring your question – there’ll be plenty of time for Q&A with our experts too!

This IN PERSON session will be held at the annual Farm, Forest and Garden Expo in Manchester, NH. Workshop free with Expo admission, and will be located in the Hale Room across from the show floor.

Also stop by our booth (#513) to talk on Friday or Saturday! Lots to see and do at this year's show in Manchester.For additional details and to buy tickets visit: https://www.nhfarmandforestexpo.org/
