Often the largest and most needed structure on the farm is the frame that holds the animals and land together to create a system for the people to live in unity and prosperously. The barn as a generous partner of the farm would tell you how it works hard to keep the farmstead in harmony, protecting the animals, storing the crops, and providing a place for the younger generation to learn the value of working, and the responsibility of caring for animals. Since 1997, White Horse Construction, Inc. has built and renovated numerous of these unique, central characters to reflect the legacy of its owners and caretakes. White Horse Construction understands the process behind preserving the character of a barn and forming a new one. From the tall, large timber frame, the handsome sliding doors, the elegant stall fronts, the sharp standing seam roofing, the brushed concrete floors, and the grandeur of a well-designed exterior, you can know that White Horse strives from start to finish to fashion these details into the character that you want your barn to be. The White Horse design team and construction workers from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania fundamentally understand the value and role that a barn plays on the property and eagerly strive to complete every element of its character like it was their own.

White Horse Construction: The Character of a Barn Poulin Grain is a family-owned feed company that has been proudly serving the Northeast with leading animal nutrition since 1932. The company is known for its premium feeds and personalized service, with a mission to provide animals with the highest-quality nutrition— formulated using science-backed technology to support performance and overall health. Forage is the cornerstone of any high-performing nutrition program—but how well do consumers really know the nutrients their forage is providing, or what might be missing? Poulin Grain eliminates the guesswork of feeding by offering complimentary forage analysis to all customers. Their advanced forage testing program delivers a high level of precision, helping build a more complete and balanced diet. Recognizing that every animal is unique, Poulin Grain works directly with customers through its team of experienced nutrition specialists. These specialists visit farms to assess overall animal health and body condition, then collect forage samples for analysis at the company’s in-house lab, located at their bagged feed mill in Newport, VT. Based on the results, they develop customized nutrition plans tailored to each animal’s specific needs, ensuring a balanced, performance-driven diet. For those with limited access to good-quality forage, Poulin Grain’s Forage Extender™ is a practical and effective option. Available in Mini Bites (standard pellet) and Super Bites (large pellet), this product is formulated to provide highly digestible, essential quality fiber. It can be used to replace up to half of the forage in an animal’s diet, pound for pound – offering an affordable way to improve or extend forage supply. Suitable for equines, sheep, cattle and goats, camelids and rabbits. Visit poulingrain.com for more information or call us at 800-334-6731.
