The 2024 barn tour will be held in Shelby County.
The Indiana Barn Foundation with the Shelby County Tourism and Visitors Bureau is planning a handful of fun and fantastic barns to visit Saturday during the self-guided driving tour including the Rudicel-Montgomery Polygonal Barn, the location for this year's Learning Lab. Attendees will be able to learn the results of the recently completed assessment and laser scanning by Trillium Dell/Firmitas and better understand what it will take to save this community landmark.
The Meltzer Farm will include their English barn, sawmill barn, 1875 brick schoolhouse, and additional historic farm buildings. Six additional privately-owned barns will include a flower farm, a cattle farm, and two former dairy barns.
Food trucks will dot the route and tour goers will have fun additional things to see and do including shopping for barn quilts and barn calendar postcards, a U-pick pumpkin patch at Meltzer Farm and an invitation to stop by Harker Orchard for cider and other goodies.
Advance tickets are $15 for IBF members or $20 for non-members. Children 16 and under are free. Tickets may be purchased online until 5 p.m. on Friday at the member/non-member price.
Tickets on the day of the tour will be $20 for all and available in-person at Lewis Creek Baptist Church, 1400 E 600 S, Waldron, which will serve as the day-of tour headquarters.
Those who pre-register should stop by the church to pick up their map, barn passport, and wrist bands.
