Ooh I found a different but very similar mod way back (I'm sure it's super-outdated now). I'll mention for this what I did on that one -- if this stack of hay bales was a separate building (still a silo, just separate) so I could have both this *and* the original silo on my farms, I would absolutely grab this in a heartbeat. xD (and no I don't/can't use Alternative Textures -- it doesn't play nice with some of my other mods so I avoid it) But yeah if it was a new additional building from Robin, that would be awesome!
I don't know how complicated that would be to do, though, I haven't messed about with Robin's buildings myself yet and I don't know if it'd be doable via just CP now or if it'd require something more coding-heavy (I think before this latest big update it definitely wasn't CP-possible so the old mod never did it). Still, if it's not too troublesome these days, maybe it's an idea to think about for the future? If you'd rather not, no worries though. Maybe I'll mess with trying to do it myself for personal use. xD
Hi! I'm glad you like the mod! I'm new to making mods and unfortunately, I'm not very good at the coding part :(. I have no idea how I would make this into a separate building and to be honest, I currently don't plan on trying to figure it out. The only thing I might do some time in the future is make an alternative textures version. So yeah, sorry to disappoint (and also for the late reply). Feel free to try it for yourself and if you do figure it out, you can post it on your own page. I have no problems with it as long as you link my mod in the description.
Hey, thanks for the response!! (And I'm glad my notifications were working - I swear it only tells me if someone replies to me about half the time). Your response reminded me to look into it again... and I discovered that adding new buildings to Robin's *IS* possible with just Content Patcher now! I'm working on putting together the appropriate JSON to see if I can get it working with this. If I can, I will let you know. Thanks again!
*edit Jan 26* I've gotten it to work in my game, and confirmed it changes appearance with the seasons and everything! It's not polished enough yet to share (e.g. I hardcoded a bunch of stuff, I imagine other users might like config options, the json is messy, etc etc) but if I get it looking nice I'll send it to you!
Hi dear mod author, would you be willing to post it if I managed to make an alternative Texture version of your beautiful mod? I'm learning how to do it, I'm not an artist but I might be able to make it work.
Hi! Nexus never gave me the notification of your reply. How can I contact you to send the AT version? I saw you added AT for the silos so I can send you the AT version for Hay Bales :)
Hi! Thank you! I've changed it so that there is just a toned down version. Hopefully it should work well with most recolours. I currently don't plan on making a version to match Earthy Recolour.

Either way, very nice mod, and thank you!
