hay shed

Farm bale shelter

A hay shed is a roofed structure, usually open-sided, for storing hay and protecting it from rain.

Unlike a fully enclosed barn, a hay shed typically has minimal walls to allow air circulation, which helps prevent mold: The farmer backed the trailer into the hay shed to unload the bales.
