Our Barn Now Looks Like a Mini Furniture Store Hopefully Someone Will Buy This Table And The Antique Chairs, Perhaps Even The New Orleans Iron Work Planters Our Large Barn Filled With Furniture Awaiting To Be Sold When you now walk into the barn, it looks like a mini furniture store or a small rendition of a Bed, Bath and Beyond instead of a working orchard barn. The barn has been swept, vacuumed, and filled with furniture and other household items.
