E-I-E-I-O! All joking aside, if you have a farm or agricultural business of any kind, the fall is a big time for you. Equipment needs storing, crops or livestock need a place to go, etc. We’ve covered all this in previous blogs, but what a lot of people don’t think about with fall on the farm is the seasonal stuff. Pumpkin patches and hayrides, mazes and even haunted attractions all usually take place on farms. Even though it is still August, these events take a lot of planning, so it’s never too early to start gearing up for fall farm activities. And just like with any farm, a steel barn or building from Arco Steel can and will make life much easier, not to mention more profitable.
Fall farm events made easy with a steel barn
For most farms with the capability, the pumpkin patch event is the biggest of the season. 
Families flock en masse to farms and their pumpkin patches in the weeks leading up to Halloween, with everyone looking for the perfect pumpkin for this year’s jack-o-lantern. These events typically draw hundreds, if not thousands, to area farms, so you don’t want to be caught holding the bag… er, pumpkin… when the time comes. But all those pumpkins can’t just be left out as prey for rebellious teens and 90’s alt-rock bands (think about it for a second). A steel barn could be the perfect place to keep all those pumpkins and other materials needed to make your pumpkin patch a success.
And what about fall hayrides? These are extremely popular destinations across the southeast, and most farms tend to offer them starting in early September. A steel barn use could be two-fold here; not only would it be an ideal place to store the tractors and trailers needed, it could also be used as a staging area, with refreshments for guests waiting and wanting to be out of the oftentimes very hot fall sunshine. And that’s nothing to say about the possibilities for a haunted attraction inside a steel barn; the options and use of the space is nearly limitless and coupled with expansive farmland and a setting sun, you could have something truly special on your hands.
