Iowa Barn Foundation Magazine
The Iowa Barn Foundation Magazine is sent to members and friends twice per year. Each issue is packed with articles about barn restoration, farm life in the “good ’ole days,” and other helpful information as submitted by members of the Iowa Barn Foundation. The Iowa Barn Foundation is grateful to Michael Lanning, a graphic artist living in Ames, Iowa, who generously donates his time and talents to help produce each issue of the magazine. The Iowa Barn Foundation Magazine is printed by Sigler Printing & Publishing in Ames, Iowa.
