Welcome To Our Trail
Central MN Barn Quilts
Take a tour of our Barn Quilt Trail as it leads you into our friendly communities and out into the beautiful Central Minnesota countryside.
Barn Quilts, quilt blocks painted on wood squares, have a rich history as an artistic expression in rural areas throughout the United States. This year, Central Minnesota is joining this artistic revival with a new Barn Quilt Trail.
Barn Quilts of Central MN is working within Wadena, Todd, Morrison, and Cass counties to create a richly woven trail of Barn Quilts for all to enjoy.
Art is being created and displayed by area residents and business owners on barns, buildings, and fence posts. Each Barn Quilt is uniquely and carefully crafted to reflect its sponsor and last for generations.
As Seen on TV
Our wonderful barn quilts were featured on Lakeland Public TV’s program Common Ground. A huge thank you to Randy Cadwell and Lakeland Public TV for representing us so well. You told the story perfectly with so many beautiful barn quilts shown on the trail.

Dream To Reality
We may have had the idea to start a barn quilt trail, but we couldn’t have made our dream come true without our dedicated sponsors. They have donated time, space, equipment, supplies, and money. Together, we turned a small plan into over 150 barn quilts on a trail weaving throughout five counties in Central Minnesota. That’s a lot of paint!
Thank you to all our great sponsors! This project would simply not be possible without them.
