Most potted or hanging plants, like petunias, are fine as long temperatures don't dip below 39 degrees, and especially if the temperature doesn't dip to the freezing mark.

I did some research and found out that houseplants need to be taken indoors before overnight temperatures dip below 45 degrees. Most tropical plants suffer harm from temperatures below 40 degrees. Well, we have temperatures forecast to dip into the 40s again on Thursday and lower 40s on Friday. I wouldn’t be shocked if we see a few upper 30s on Friday morning. If you put your houseplants outside, you might want to bring them in, or be like me and wait until May to consider putting them outside. Some are easy to carry, but I have some big potted plants that are heavy and I only want to have to put them outside once until the late fall. Most potted or hanging plants, like petunias, are fine as long temperatures don’t dip below 39 degrees, and especially if the temperature doesn’t dip to the freezing mark. I certainly don’t see freezing temperatures in the next two weeks, but areas north of I-20 could see some upper 30s by Friday morning. Most hardy annuals will be fine, so I would be more concerned if you put tropical plants outside. Peace lilies, for example, cannot withstand cold drafts or temperatures below 45 degrees. I would also hold off planting tomato or pepper plants because they are not fond of temperatures below 55 degrees, or 50 degrees in some cases. The average low is 52 degrees, but we will be trending below normal at times over the next couple of weeks, so I would hold off planting certain vegetables, seeds, and putting out sensitive houseplants until May. I did put out my Boston Ferns, seeing they can tolerate an occasional blast of cold air between 40 and 50 degrees. If you have questions about plants that you have and what temperature is too cold for them, you can just google it.

If you want a barn to repurpose into an event space, you can buy an average-sized barn for $10,000-$20,000, but that doesn't include the cost of deconstructing and reassembling it. With hand-hewn beams and historical value, a large barn can cost well over $50,000 (2).
materials used and the construction methods, can affect how long a barn lasts. However, many experts estimate that most English-style barns were built between the 1600s and 1800s (1). Barns were an important part of farming life for many years. They provided shelter for animals and storage for crops. In addition, they often served as a place where people could gather and socialize. With the advent of modern farm equipment, however, barns have gradually become less important. Many were abandoned or destroyed in favor of larger and more efficient structures. Today, vintage barns are becoming increasingly rare. Many have been preserved through restoration efforts, but others are in danger of being lost forever. Their age and unique architecture make them an important part of our history, and it is important to save as many as we can.
