A replica of a historic log tool barn stands in a forest clearing, in early spring. Located in rural Tennessee, in the Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area, the barn is part of the 1850s Homeplace Working Farm. The farm paints a portrait of farm life in rural Tennessee and Kentucky, in the 1800's.

The tool barn provided a work area for farmers to build home furnishings, and repair farm equipment. Tools were stored within the barns "cribs", while wagons, plows, and buggies were stored under the barn lean to's.
