its an urban farm, so it is a bit different. i prolly shouldnt even call it a barn, but i lack a better word.
i need it to be insulated enough for a grow space on the second floor. (a half floor, actually)
i will have some baseboard type heat, but hope that it is more occasional back up than full time heat.

the first floor will be a couple parking places and equipment storage, maybe winter some crop storage. maybe some aquaponics. so preferably kept from freezing.

might occasionally have some chickens in there, but mostly not.
