Aaronholt homestead

The Aaronholt homestead is a location in the Forest region of Appalachia.Fallout 76 Vault Dweller's Survival Guide p.296: "20. AARONHOLT HOMESTEADClose to a section of sagging road are a group of farm structures. The three main structures (and small hay barn) house a variety of junk and collectibles (and the corpse of farmer Aaronholt). The locked silo warehouse (0) to the south is also of considerable interest, possibly housing a Power Armor frame. Check the junk pile near a ruined shed on the eastern edge of the farmstead too."(Fallout 76 Vault Dweller's Survival Guide Atlas of Appalachia)
==Background==
The Aaronholt homestead was one of several farms seized by the government through eminent domain to expand the local lumber mill. The Aaronholt brothers made the poor decision to join other displaced farmers in an attack on the lumber mill, leading to a police crackdown that forced them into hiding. After coming out of hiding in the wake of the Great War, they returned to the farm, only to be killed by the Vultures, a raider gang, when they decided to pick a fight with them.Agatha Aaronholt's diary
==Layout==
The Aaronholt homestead consists of six buildings clustered off the road - three houses, one warehouse, and two barns. Coming up to the homestead from the north, there will be three large granary silos. Behind them is the warehouse with a locked door (Picklock 1). Upon entering the warehouse there is a power armor station with a power armor chassis. 
Across from the granary silos is a destroyed barn that contains the body of Lowell Aaronholt, lying in a bathtub clutching a guitar. Continuing north, there are two houses on the right towards the east and a barn along with the third house to the west; continuing west, there is another barn. The barn near the house contains an armor workbench and a brewing station. The houses and barn contain a variety of low-grade junk.
In the center of the homestead, there is a small field that grows corn in addition to other crops that are scattered around the homestead. There are numerous firecap, firecracker berry, rhododendron, silt bean, soot flower, tato plant, and wild melon blossom harvest nodes in the area, as well as several wood piles and the usual assorted recipe spawns scattered across the buildings.
