Jamie,
If you have talked to them about helping them find homes and they just want to keep them in the barn of course we all know this is not the best long life for any kitten/cat. Just my thought of course you know kittens are courious and could just wander off into......lets say Jamies hands and like Tammy spoke of in Petco these adoptions that happen there are not put on by the store they are actually no kill rescue groups. So if you check with the one that shows in you're area I would bet they would take them off you're hands especially with the idea of kittens being barn cats.

I volunteer with a group that works out of Petco every sunday. The one I'm with now does strickly canine but the last group I was with also did cats which they were allowed to use the Petco site/kennels to keep them for viewing and potential adopters though out the weeks. Petco does this not only to help unwanted animals get homes but of course when someone adopts they obvioulsy need supplies for the new family member so its a win/win for both party's.

And with this family maybe if you contact the rescue group whether its Petco or Petfinder for local groups in you're area. I would set up the idea a make sure you have a group lined up willing to take the kittens and them present the idea to the family reassuring them they will get loving long term homes they are entitled to. Perhaps they will give them up.
Some groups even offer to spay and neuter the adults to stop the cycle.

Just an idea,
Good Luck
