TWISTING STAR, COPE FARM EQUIPMENT
A puzzle you can solve at home but the starting coordinates will take you to this Ashtabula County quilt block.
About the quilt & barn...
Address: 4057 Route 307, Austinburg Township. Interstate 90 to the Route 45 exit; south to Route 307, turn right, toward Geneva. Business with barn quilt is at the northeast corner of 307 and Mechanicsville Road.
The building:
Storage barn for Cope Farm Equipment. At one time, prior to becoming a farm equipment business, this building housed a gas station. It was selected for the barn quilt because of its close proximity to the highway and was cited on the south side of the barn so motorists traveling from the Mechanicsville Covered Bridge would notice it. “It was just a nice place to put up a barn quilt,” says Nancy Younessi, general manager.
Cope Farm Equipment’s Austinburg store is one of the oldest John Deere dealerships in the state. It was started by Frank Babucz as Frank’s Tractor Sales. Frank’s Tractor Sales was sold to Cope in January 1994.
