Coy Griffin of Madison County, a former tobacco grower, is improving his horse boarding business by modernizing and expanding his 30-year-old building, which was once a tobacco barn.
He hopes the improvements will help him board more horses and ensure his business remains in operation for years to come. Coy also sells and barters his horse manure as a soil amendment.
