Running across various different places on rides is one of my favorite things. With abandoned and run down locations having a special place in my heart.
While out on my last ride, I ran across this abandoned massive live stock farm. Most of it has been overgrown with various plants and weeds.
The place is huge, with a large part still explorable. Photo above seems to be were the animals were kept, with a copy paste building right next to it that is still full of hay.
I can smell this picture. Hay, cattle, manure, it's all there, even if it's faint now that the animals are gone.
Honestly, it was surprisingly clean. I did not go in that far, just a few steps and it just smelled stale / damp.
I’m thinking maybe the manure was cleaned up by local farmers (for use on their farm fields, which are pretty much right next to this complex).
Here’s a better picture of the inside. Does this even look like a place cattle would be kept? It’s just too clean.
I always think abandoned farms are very sad.
I think non-abandoned factory farms are sad. If there was a hell, I'd hope factory farmers burn in it.
I mean like ‘family farms’ not huge industrial wastelands.
i think abandoned places in general have a kind of residual sorrow to them, but this place isn't too bad. worst are the ones where things have been left. i've seen abandoned hospitals that still have medicine left in them, for example.
