Historic barns and agricultural structures symbolize the distinctive New Hampshire values of heritage, hard work, productivity, and stewardship. They are witnesses to the role of agriculture in our state's image and its economy, and they serve as scenic landmarks for residents and visitors alike. They are among our most highly valued heritage resources, but many can no longer generate sufficient income to prevent their loss by decay or demolition. In order to assist the owners who are making an effort to preserve these irreplaceable assets, it is hereby declared to be public policy and in the public interest of this state to establish a matching grants program consisting of funds from private and public sector grants, gifts, and donations for preserving historic agricultural structures in New Hampshire.
