We've put together a collection of farmhouse style front door images to give you inspiration. So, let's take a look, shall we?

Farmhouses are associated with farms and farms are typically in natural settings. Whether set on the prairies or in the mountains, a true farm style involves some sort of greenery. If you're in the city this might be an abundance of potted flowers on your front porch. But if you're a bit more rural, you might consider adding some vining plants to show off your front door area.
