The BARN AGAIN! program does not provide grants to private individuals to fix up their barns. It would be impossible for us to give grants for every barn in the country that needs to be rehabilitated! That's why we developed BARN AGAIN! Using an older building is an economical alternative to building new. Our statistics show that on average barn rehabilitation costs one-third as much as constructing a comparable new building.

Some federal, state, and local programs are available, however, to help defray the costs of a barn preservation project. Some states offer property or income tax relief for the rehabilitation of historic buildings, and a few localities have grant or loan programs for preservation.
