A couple in North Platte, Nebraska, USA have created their own antique grain bin town.
The town, which is set up on the couple's own property, consists of fifteen octagon-shaped grain bins, six of which are filled with antiques for sale.
“This has to be a one of a
kind in our state,” said Lisa Burke, convention and visitors bureau executive director. She added, “this is a
fabulous thing for our town, one more thing for people to see and do
here. People will see a totally different aspect of Nebraska here.”

the feedlots.

serve our global and leading regional brewers in the region,”said Doug Eden, president of Cargill’s global malt business.
