Update in Pictures #3

These loaded in a backward order of how I wanted them. So I'll go through one by one.
First pic is inside of greenhouse.
Second pic is view from the wash pen to the side of the barn and end of greenhouse. Craig has planted grass, but it wasn't warm enough - so he's planted more grass to fill in. We'll mow this grass and feed it to the chickens. Also helps with weeds and soil erosion.
Third pic is entrance to the future wash pen, where we'll hose down our pigs. Needs to have a bit more concrete poured to add to the existing concrete
Fourth pic is another view of the wash pen.
Fifth pic is the second part of the walkway from the driveway to the pig barn. As you walk along the alley, the greenhouse is on your left (those are the installed fans that you can see). The first thing you pass as you turn the corner into this alley is the boar pen first (you can't see it in this picture), then 2nd comes the water holding "tank" (block wall there) and then the 3 outdoor pig pens, and then finally you come to the entrance of the red barn where there are three more pens inside and 2 farrowing (birthing) pens.
