I take it you're in HO? Get the Plasticville farm buildings set that goes with the barn, it gives you a small equipment shed, chicken coop, dog house, corn crib and some assorted animals. When you paint them up they look pretty good. Put the big truck on another part of layout and get Model Power's Ford pick-up and a Classic Miniatures sedan. Woodland Scenics make a great windmill and some older farm equipment to add to scene. Don't add too many trees behind house, a couple of big ones between house and barn will take away from smaller barn size. Even for Montana! When you add fence line around from field to barn and surrounding farm, use some poly fiber covered with ground foam to give the look of a brush line between right of way and farm. Put a fence line along base of hill to rock outcropping, then straight along your brush and add some brush and thicker grass for pasture, then put some denser trees up on side hill.
