BARN GRANTS
Vermont's agricultural buildings are an important part of our
working landscape. The Vermont Division for Historic Preservation
has had a 50/50 matching grants program to assist owners of
historic agricultural buildings (barns, corn cribs, sheds, grist
mills, etc.) since 1991. These can be in private ownership.
Up to $10,000 can be awarded to assist the restoration and repair
of these endangered buildings. This program encourages the continued
use of farm buildings for agricultural use. Eligible work includes
restoration and repair of roofs, structure, windows, foundations
and other important components of historic agricultural buildings.
