A new tourism trail of Mason County farms will open this September. It will be similar to a trail of barns on Old Mission Peninsula. They display barn quilts. They’re not fabric quilts. They’re large pieces of wood painted to look like quilt squares and fastened to the exteriors of barns. The Mason County trail is hoping to have 12 quilts up by mid-September. Brandy Henderson is Executive Director of the Ludington Area Convention and Visitors Bureau. Brandy says, "People will be able to bring their cellphone and dial a number at each stop and they'll hear the story and history of each barn quilt design." The quilts are designed by local artists and many represent the families who live on each farm. There will be a sneak peek of some of the barn quilt squares at the Mason County Fairgrounds Friday.
