Glass Barn - Indiana Corn and Soy

Glass Barn

Unveiled by Indiana’s soybean farmers at the 2013 Indiana State Fair, the Glass Barn is the premier destination for educating Hoosiers about farming.

The Glass Barn program is funded through Indiana’s soybean checkoff.

Using engaging displays, games and programs, it allows visitors to learn about farming, farmers’ connections with the land and the technology they use to work it. The Glass Barn is open to the public each year during the Indiana State Fair. The Glass Barn is also a resource destination for teachers, providing educational programs throughout the year for preschool age children to high school seniors.
