Description
About the Iowa Barn Foundation
Founded in 1997, the Iowa Barn Foundation is dedicated to preserving Iowa's rural buildings, symbols of Iowa's early agricultural heritage. The Iowa Barn Foundation is an Iowa non-profit corporation with tax-exempt status under paragraph 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
The Iowa Barn Foundation, its board of directors, and county representatives work to preserve Iowa’s agricultural history and vanishing barns by educating people in Iowa—and beyond—about our rural heritage and the importance of barn preservation. This is being accomplished through the bi-annual Iowa Barn Foundation Magazine, the Iowa Barn Foundation Web site, the annual All-State Barn Tour, and through picnics, open meetings, and through worldwide publicity in newspapers, magazines, and television.
We provide matching grants to property owners to help restore qualified barns. The Iowa Barn Foundation gives Awards of Distinction to those property owners who restore or rehabilitate their barns at their own expense. In addition, the Iowa Barn Foundation is committed to farm conservancy and now accepts economically and financially self-sustaining farms and farmland. These farms and farmland are saved in perpetuity for agricultural purposes according to the owner’s wishes.
