Tack, feed and wash rooms in North Florida

Tack, feed and wash rooms in North Florida: what to know

Tack, feed and wash rooms each take up a stall-sized space in the barn, so they belong in the plan from the start. A tack room wants a solid door with a lock, finished interior walls and, in a humid climate, insulation and some way to dry the air. The feed room needs a latch a curious horse can't work and a floor that keeps rodents out. A wash stall needs a sloped concrete floor, a drain, and hot and cold water if you can run them.
