Cattle Troughs As Pools Are Trending
With most public pools closed or operating under tight restrictions, the desire to have your own backyard oasis to cool off in is blowing up!
The new trend, or to be more precise, an old trend that’s new again, is to buy a cattle trough and use it as a pool. According to the New York Post, “Instagram is chock-full of supercool images of galvanized steel stock tanks — purchased from farm stores such as Tractor Supply Co. for between $300 and $600 — which creative fans of farmhouse design are customizing as pools.”
Aesthetics aside, an above ground 15’x48″ pool kit from a big box store could run you as little 310.00
The above model pool was found at Walmart.com for 306.00 and it comes with filtration to keep the pool safe and clean. There are tons of retailers out there with several different options, so check around for the best price. -Jinger Royal
