Geocache Description:

Please do not search at night.  No need to go any further onto the property than the 3 plows parallel to the road.  The barn quilt is clearly viewed from the cache location.  Be sure to place the container appropriately back where you found it.


Quilt pattern is called the Tree of Life in honor of the multiple livestock farm the family runs.  The cache may not be winter accessible depending on snow depth.

This cache will bring you to a viewing location for one of the Barn Quilts of Door County.  The quilt is one of 45 placed in Door County between 2010-2012 as a joint project of the UW-Extension, 4-H members and leaders, FFA members and alumni, local quilt guild members and other volunteers.

The goals of the Door County Barn Quilt Project are:

  • Promote the agricultural heritage of Door Co.

  • Provide education about the art and history of quilting

  • Highlight the architecture and historical significance of barns throughout Door Co.

  • Encourage economic development by promoting rural tourism

  • Build an adult-youth partnership through the implementation of the project

More information on the project can be seen at http://barnquiltsofdoorcounty.com

Please tread lightly as you search out the caches.  CITO and BYOP.  Feel free to post pictures of the barn quilts, but please don’t give away the cache location or container.

Happy Caching!
