Are you saying you have no choice?

I would think if it were a farm, it would be easy to lay down gravel or a concrete pad? But if you have no choice then parking on the grass is option you chose versus paying to store elsewhere. I don't see any issues other than the realities of parking on grass vs gravel; vs concrete. At least you are not in a residential area where you may have neighbors that could complain about the aesthetics

Between you and me, and if I had the same dilemma with my new coach, I would store on the farm too, my worry would be getting rid of mice / rats NOT moisture. Of course I assume I would have ZERO option to pour concrete? Concrete will not stop the rats, but it would be easier to control them versus being on grass.

FWIW, my coach was brand new; stored inside at a dealership in Florida, .1 hour on generator and only the miles to drive it from Forest City Iowa to Port St Lucie' FL; but there was all kinds of rust on the bottom. I finally reasoned that the Chassis must have been stored outside by Ford a while before Winnebago bought it to build the coach The jack levelers also had some rust and it was brand new!!!
